Pythrabian comma
| Interval information |
The Pythrabian comma (monzo: [33 -23 0 0 -1⟩, ratio: 94489280512/94143178827) is a small 11-limit comma, which measures roughly 6.35 cents. It is the interval which, when tempered out, equates 11/8 with a stack of twenty-three 3/2 perfect fifths octave-reduced, and also equates a stack of two Pythagorean commas with 33/32.
The name Pythrabian comma comes from 11/8 and 3/2 both being the generators for Alpharabian tuning, with 3/2 additionally being the generator for Pythagorean tuning – however the name is even more appropriate in light of the aforementioned connection with both the Pythagorean comma and 33/32.
It is tempered out in 41edo and 53edo, where 11/8 is mapped to the triply-augmented second (AAA2, e.g. C–D♯𝄪 or C to D triple-sharp).
