The 5-limit version of the temperament is a [[Microtempering|microtemperament]], sometimes called hanson or schismatic, which flattens the fifth by a fraction of a schisma, but other members of the family are less accurate. As a 5-limit system, it is far more accurate than meantone but still with manageable complexity. [[53edo]] is a possible tuning for schismatic, but you need [[118edo]] if you want to get the full effect. In exact analogy with 1/4 comma meantone there is also 1/8 schisma schismatic, with pure major thirds and fifths flattened by 1/8 schisma. Since 1/8 of a schisma is 0.244 cents, this falls into the range of microtempering. | The 5-limit version of the temperament is a [[Microtempering|microtemperament]], sometimes called hanson or schismatic, which flattens the fifth by a fraction of a schisma, but other members of the family are less accurate.

The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.
Original Wikitext content:
The 5-limit parent comma for the schismatic family is the schisma of 32805/32768, which is the amount by which the Pythagorean comma exceeds the Didymos comma (81/80), or alternatively put, the difference between a just major third and a just diminished fourth. Its [[monzo]] is |-15 8 1>, and flipping that yields <<1 -8 15|| for the [[Wedgies and Multivals|wedgie]]. This tells us the generator is a fifth and that we will need eight fourths in succession to reach the pitch class of a major third. In fact, 10 = (4/3)^8 * 32805/32768. The 5-limit version of the temperament is a [[Microtempering|microtemperament]], sometimes called hanson or schismatic, which flattens the fifth by a fraction of a schisma, but other members of the family are less accurate. As a 5-limit system, it is far more accurate than meantone but still with manageable complexity. [[53edo]] is a possible tuning for schismatic, but you need [[118edo]] if you want to get the full effect. In exact analogy with 1/4 comma meantone there is also 1/8 schisma schismatic, with pure major thirds and fifths flattened by 1/8 schisma. Since 1/8 of a schisma is 0.244 cents, this falls into the range of microtempering. ==Seven limit children== The second comma of the [[Normal lists|normal comma list]] defines which 7-limit family member we are looking at. Adding |25 -14 0 -1> gives garibaldi, |-44 26 0 1> grackle, |6 -2 0 -1> schism and |-59 39 0 -1> pontiac; these all have a fifth as generator. Bischismic adds |-69 40 0 2> and has a fifth generator with a half-octave period. Guiron adds 1029/1024 = |-10 1 0 3>, with an 8/7 generator, three of which give the fifth. Sesquiquartififths adds |-35 15 0 4> and slices the fifth in four.
