'''243/242''', the '''rastma''' or the '''neutral third comma''', is an [[11-limit]] (also 2.3.11 subgroup) comma with a value of roughly 7.1 [[cent]]s. It is significant in Just Intonation as the amount by which a stack of two [[33/32]] quartertones falls short of an [[2187/2048|apotome (2187/2048)]] as well as the difference between [[11/9]] and [[27/22]], and, the difference between [[45/44]] and [[55/54]]. Tempering it out leads to a form of '''[[rastmic temperament]]''' or '''neutral temperament'''. When not tempered out, the rastma serves as the [[Diatonic, Chromatic, Enharmonic, Subchromatic|subchroma]] that separates greater and lesser 11-limit chromas– a property that becomes especially apparent when one works extensively with the 11-limit.

== Temperament ==
Tempering it out leads to a form of [[rastmic temperament]], or in the 2.3.11 subgroup, the [[Subgroup temperaments #Neutral|neutral]] temperament, enabling [[rastmic chords]].
