In the 11 limit, two generators are equated to 11/8 (meaning 99/98 is tempered out). This means that three stacked generators makes the [[orwell tetrad|guanyin tetrad]] 1/1-7/6-11/8-8/5, a chord in which every interval is a (tempered) 11-limit consonance. Other such chords in orwell are the [[keenanismic tetrads]] and the [[swetismic chords]].

Compatible equal temperaments include [[22edo]], [[31edo]], [[53edo]], and [[84edo]]. Orwell is in better tune in lower limits than higher ones; the [[optimal patent val]] is [[296edo]] in the 5-limit, [[137edo]] in the 7-limit, and [[53edo]] in the 11-limit. It tempers out the semicomma in the 5-limit, 225/224, 1728/1715, 2430/2401 and 6144/6125 in the 7-limit, and 99/98, 121/120, 176/175, 385/384 and 540/539 in the 11-limit. By adding 275/273 to the list of commas it can be extended to the 13-limit as [[Semicomma family#Julia|julia temperament]], and by adding instead 66/65, [[Semicomma family#Winston|winston temperament]].
