Undim features a quarter-octave period, which acts as the [[1215/1024|ptolemaic augmented second (1215/1024)]]. That and five [[4/3|perfect fourths]] (i.e. a minor second, ~[[256/243]]) gives the interval class of 5.
Note that all versions of undim (ones that do not already map 19 differently and more accurately) have an obvious extension to prime 19 by observing that sharpening 1215/1024 by [[1216/1215]] results in [[19/16]], thus mapping 19/16 to [[4edo|1\4]]. This interpretation is arguably much more harmonically plausible, owing to its simplicity and thereby greater tolerance to mistuning.

Revision as of 08:31, 4 April 2025

The undim family of temperaments tempers out the undim comma, [41 -20 -4, equating the Pythagorean comma with a stack of four schismas. This makes it a member of the schismic–Pythagorean equivalence continuum, with n = 4.

The name undim was given by Petr Pařízek in 2011 for it is some sort of opposite to diminished[1].

The second comma of the normal comma list defines which 7-limit family member we are looking at. Septimal undim (140 & 152) tempers out 5120/5103 (hemifamity). Unlit (152 & 316) does 4375/4374 (ragisma) instead. Twilight (152 & 176) adds 6144/6125 (porwell) to the comma list and splits the period into two – 1/8 of an octave.

Undim

Undim features a quarter-octave period, which acts as the ptolemaic augmented second (1215/1024). That and five perfect fourths (i.e. a minor second, ~256/243) gives the interval class of 5.

Note that all versions of undim (ones that do not already map 19 differently and more accurately) have an obvious extension to prime 19 by observing that sharpening 1215/1024 by 1216/1215 results in 19/16, thus mapping 19/16 to 1\4. This interpretation is arguably much more harmonically plausible, owing to its simplicity and thereby greater tolerance to mistuning.

Septimal undim

Septimal undim tempers out the dimcomp comma, mapping ~25/21 to the 1/4-octave period. It can be described as 12 & 140, and is the unique temperament that equates a syntonic~septimal comma with a stack of three marvel commas. A Pythagorean comma is then found as a stack of four marvel commas. In some 7-limit adaptive-tuning practice, the marvel comma corresponds to a melodic unit called a kleisma, with three kleismas making a comma, so this temperament may be useful for modeling that. 292edo makes for an excellent tuning.
