Wizmic microtemperaments

Revision as of 23:26, 6 May 2026 by Overthink (talk | contribs) (Gariwizmic: fix errors)
This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.

This is a collection of rank-2 microtemperaments which tempers out the wizma (monzo[-6 -8 2 5, ratio: 420175/419904).

Discussed elsewhere are:

Considered below are qak, tokko, tertiathirds, witcher, and gariwizmic.

Gariwizmic

Gariwizmic (94&176) tempers out the wizma (420175/419904) and the garischisma (33554432/33480783). It assumes a semioctave period and a perfect fifth generator that is slightly sharp of just. Unlike schismic, it finds 5/4 at the transdiminished fourth (+45 fifths) minus a half pythagorean comma, or equivalently, at the transdiminished octave (+39 fifths) minus a semioctave.

It is bad in the 5-limit but extends extremely well to other subgroups, notably the 2.3.5.7.11.13.19 subgroup, as it also indirectly tempers out the tredekisma, the smallest superparticular ratio in the 19- and 23-limit.
