Cheensma
Interval information |
lathothogu unison
The cheensma is a 2.3.5.13-subgroup comma measuring about 4.5 ¢. Tempering only this comma out in the 2.3.5.13 subgroup yields the rank-3 cheen temperament, a restriction of full 13-limit zeus, splitting the grave fifth of ~40/27 into two ~39/32 neutral thirds of equal width. In the full 13-limit, tempering out only the cheensma leads to rank-5 cheensmic temperament. As this comma is the product of the keenanisma (385/384) and the chalmersia (123201/123200), its name is a portamenteau of the two, which was given by Tristan Bay in 2025.
