The schismic–countercommatic equivalence continuum is a continuum of 5-limit temperaments which equate a number of schismas (32805/32768) with the Pythagorean countercomma ([65 -41⟩). This continuum is theoretically interesting in that these are all 5-limit microtemperaments supported by 41edo.

All temperaments in the continuum satisfy (32805/32768)n ~ [65 -41⟩. Varying n results in different temperaments listed in the table below. It converges to schismic as n approaches infinity. If we allow non-integer and infinite n, the continuum describes the set of all 5-limit temperaments supported by 41edo due to it being the unique equal temperament that tempers out both commas and thus tempers out all combinations of them. The just value of n is approximately 10.1575233481…, and temperaments having n near this value tend to be the most accurate ones.

The Pythagorean countercomma is the characteristic 3-limit comma tempered out in 41edo, and has many advantages as a target. In each case, n equals the order of harmonic 5 in the corresponding comma, and equals the number of steps to obtain the interval class of harmonic 3 in the generator chain. For example:

  • Cotoneum (n = 1) is generated by a fifth;
  • Newt (n = 2) splits its fifth in two;
  • Etc.

For a similar but perhaps more intuitive and practical concept, see Schismic–commatic equivalence continuum.
