49/48 is [[tempered out]] in [[15edo]] and [[19edo]], where the two intervals are equated, and the fourth is split in a perfect half. In the 2.3.7 [[subgroup]], this is known as the [[semaphore]] temperament, and the comma is thus known as the '''semaphore comma'''. It cannot be tempered out if all of the consonances of the 7-odd-limit are [[distinct]], but it ''can'' be equated with other commas; for example (49/48)/([[81/80]]) = [[245/243]], (49/48)/([[64/63]]) = [[1029/1024]], (49/48)/([[3125/3072]]) = [[3136/3125]], (49/48)/([[50/49]]) = [[2401/2400]], ([[128/125]])/(49/48) = [[6144/6125]], ([[36/35]])/(49/48) = [[1728/1715]]. | 49/48 is [[tempered out]] in [[15edo]] and [[19edo]], where the two intervals are equated, and the fourth is split in a perfect half.
