Gjaeck tempers out some other commas too:
Gjaeck tempers out some other high-limit commas too:
* The Blume comma, 2057/2048; moving up by two 11’s and then an 17 gets you nowhere: 26 + 26 + 5 = 57.
* The Blume comma, 2057/2048; moving up by two 11’s and then an 17 gets you nowhere: 26 + 26 + 5 = 57.
* The nothulo comma, 209/208, since 26 + 14 = 40; moving by an 11 and 19 is the same as moving by a 13

The generator for this MOS is 35th step of 57, which is 736.8421¢, an interval associated with the 21st harmonic.

While 57 = 19⋅3 and thus 57ed2 extends 19ed2, Gjaeck bears little resemblance to 19ed2; it feels more like a whacked out 13ed2, pinched and pulled in a particular way to more perfectly capture the four higher harmonic primes.
