== Diaschismic ==
== Diaschismic ==
A simpler characterization than the one given by the normal comma list is that diaschismic adds [[126/125]] or [[5120/5103]] to the set of commas, and it can also be called 46&58. However described, diaschismic has a 1/2 period and a sharp fifth generator like pajara, but not so sharp, giving a more accurate but more complex temperament. [[58 EDO]] provides an excellent tuning, but an alternative is to make [[7/4]] just by making the fifth 703.897 cents, as opposed to 703.448 cents for 58 EDO.

Diaschismic extends naturally to the 17-limit, for which the same tunings may be used, making it one of the most important of the higher limit rank two temperaments. Adding the 11-limit adds the commas 176/175, 896/891 and 441/440. The 13-limit yields 196/195, 351/350, and 364/363; the 17-limit adds 136/135, 221/220, and 442/441. If you want to explore higher limit harmonies, diaschismic is certainly one excellent way to do it; MOS of 34 notes and even more the 46 note MOS will encompass very great deal of it. Of course 46 or 58 equal provide alternatives which in many ways are similar, particularly in the case of 58.

== Keen ==
== Keen ==
Keen adds 875/864 as well as 2240/2187 to the set of commas. It may also be described as the 22&56 temperament. [[78 EDO]] is a good tuning choice, and remains a good one in the 11-limit, where keen, {{multival| 2 -4 18 -12 … }}, is really more interesting, adding 100/99 and 385/384 to the commas.

== Echidna ==
== Echidna ==
Echidna adds 1728/1715 to the commas and takes 9/7 as a generator. It may be called the 22&58 temperament. [[58 EDO]] or [[80 EDO]] make for good tunings, or their vals can be add to {{val| 138 219 321 388 }}.

Echidna becomes more interesting when extended to be an 11-limit temperament by adding 176/175, 896/891 or 540/539 to the commas, where the same tunings can be used as before. It then is able to represent the entire 11-limit diamond to within about six cents of error, within a compass of 24 notes. The 28 note 2MOS gives scope for this, and the 36 note MOS much more.

== Shrutar ==
== Shrutar ==
Shrutar adds 245/243 to the commas, and also tempers out 6144/6125. It can also be described as 22&amp;46. Its generator can be taken as either 36/35 or 35/24; the latter is interesting since along with 15/14 and 21/20, it connects opposite sides of a hexany. [[68 EDO]] makes for a good tuning, but another and excellent choice is a generator of 14<sup>(1/7)</sup>, making 7s just.

By adding 121/120 or 176/175 to the commas, shrutar can be extended to the 11-limit, which loses a bit of accuracy, but picks up low-complexity 11-limit harmony, making shrutar quite an interesting 11-limit system. 68, 114 or a 14<sup>(1/7)</sup> generator can again be used as tunings.
