The '''large septimal diesis''' (or '''slendro diesis'''), '''49/48''' (35.6968 [[cent]]s), is a [[superparticular]] ratio spanning the small distance between a subminor third ([[7/6]]) and a supermajor second ([[8/7]]) or between the supermajor sixth ([[12/7]]) and the harmonic seventh ([[7/4]]). It is [[tempered out]] in [[15edo]] and [[19edo]], where the two intervals are equated, and the fourth is split in a perfect half. It cannot be tempered out if all of the consonances of the 7-limit are distinct, but it can be equated with other commas; for example (49/48)/([[81/80]]) = [[245/243]], (49/48)/([[64/63]]) = 1029/1024, (49/48)/([[3125/3072]]) = [[3136/3125]], (49/48)/([[50/49]]) = [[2401/2400]], ([[128/125]])/(49/48) = 6144/6125, ([[36/35]])/(49/48) = 1728/1715.

In classical Western music, this interval is not known as a [[comma]] as it is not tempered out in [[12edo]].
