Kleismic family

The 5-limit parent comma for the kleismic family is 15625/15552, the kleisma. Its monzo is [-6 -5 6⟩, and flipping that yields ⟨⟨ 6 5 -6 ]] for the wedgie. This tells us the generator is a minor third, and that to get to the interval class of major thirds will require five of these, and so to get to fifths will require six. In fact, (6/5)⁵ = 5/2 × 15625/15552. This 5-limit temperament (virtually a microtemperament) is commonly called Hanson, and 14\53 is about perfect as a hanson generator, though 9\34 also makes sense, and 5\19 and 4\15 are possible. Other tunings include 72edo, 87edo and 140edo.

Seven limit extensions

The second comma of the normal comma list defines which 7-limit family member we are looking at. 875/864, the keemic comma, gives keemun, 4375/4374, the ragisma, gives catakleismic, 5120/5103, hemifamity, gives countercata, 6144/6125, the porwell comma, gives hemikleismic, 245/243, sensamagic, gives clyde, 1029/1024, the gamelisma, gives tritikleismic, and 2401/2400, the breedsma, gives quadritikleismic. Keemun, catakleismic and countercata all have octave period and use the minor third as a generator; catakleismic and countercata define the 7/4 more complexly but more accurately than keemun. Hemikleismic splits the 6/5 in half to get a neutral second generator of 35/32, and clyde similarly splits the 5/3 in half to get a 9/7 generator. Finally, tritikleismic has a 1/3 octave period with minor third generator, and quadritikleismic a 1/4 octave period with the minor third generator.
