Garibaldi temperament is a 7-limit (and higher) temperament of the schismatic family. It is an extension of helmholtz temperament beyond the 5-limit but with the same simple chain-of-fifths structure (so that standard notation may be used). As in helmholtz temperament, 5/4 is mapped to the diminished fourth (e.g. C-F♭), and the new mapping specific to garibaldi is that 7/4 is mapped to the double diminished octave (e.g. C-Cbb). This makes garibaldi a marvel temperament.

Immediate 11-limit extensions include cassandra (41 & 53), mapping 11/8 to +23 fifths, andromeda (29 & 41), mapping 11/8 to -18 fifths, and helenus (53 & 65d), mapping 11/8 to -30 fifths.

Notation

Using garibaldi can be a challenge because it defies the tradition of tertian harmony in circle-of-fifths notation. The just major triad on C is C-Fb-G, for example. One may want to adopt an additional module of accidentals such as arrows to represent the comma step, allowing them to write the chord above as C-vE-G.
