'''Deeptone''' or '''tragicomical''' is a [[5-limit]] [[temperament]] that tempers out the [[comma]] [[177147/163840]]. It is generated by a fifth (~[[3/2]]), which is typically sharper than in 7edo but flatter than in [[ | '''Deeptone''' or '''tragicomical''' is a [[5-limit]] [[temperament]] that tempers out the [[comma]] [[177147/163840]]. It is generated by a fifth (~[[3/2]]), which is typically sharper than in 7edo but flatter than in [[flattertone]] (approximately 686-691{{cent}}). The ~[[5/4]] is reached by eleven fifths octave-reduced, which is an augmented third (C-E#). A characteristic feature of deeptone is that the [[81/80|syntonic comma]] is tuned negative, represented by a diminished unison (C-Cb). This means that ~[[81/64]] is a submajor third flatter than ~[[5/4]], and ~[[32/27]] is a supraminor third sharper than ~[[6/5]]. When properly tuned, it features [[MOS scale]]s of the families [[2L 3s]], [[5L 2s]], [[7L 5s]], [[7L 12s]], and [[7L 19s]]. | ||
