Misty family

Revision as of 15:55, 4 January 2026 by FloraC (talk | contribs) (- CTE & POTE tunings)
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.

The misty family tempers out the misty comma (monzo[26 -12 -3, ratio: 67108864/66430125).

Misty

Misty features a third-octave period, which represents the ptolemaic diminished fourth (512/405). Four perfect fourths (i.e. a minor sixth, ~128/81) minus a period give the interval class of 5. Misty has a ploidacot of triploid monocot, and equates the Pythagorean comma with a stack of three schismas, making it a member of the schismic–Pythagorean equivalence continuum with n = 3.

Overview to extensions

The second comma of the normal comma list defines which 7-limit family member we are looking at.

  • Adding 3136/3125 (hemimean) leads to septimal misty.
  • Adding 225/224 (marvel) leads to fog.
