Tetracot extensions
Tetracot has multiple competing extensions to the 7-limit. The simplest 2.3.5.11 subgroup commas of tetracot are ptolemisma (100/99) and rastma (243/242), and it can be viewed as the merge of the two corresponding rank-3 temperaments. 100/99 is particularly tricky as it can suggest tempering out either 225/224 (leading to apollo) or 385/384 (leading to supermagic), resulting in distinct extensions of tetracot:
- Monkey (34 & 41) – tempering out 100/99, 243/242, 385/384
- Bunya (34d & 41) – tempering out 100/99, 225/224, 243/242
The two unite in 41et, where both 225/224 and 385/384 are tempered out.
In addition, there are two simpler entries:
- Modus (27e & 34d) – tempering out 64/63, 100/99, 243/242
- Wollemia (27e & 34) – tempering out 56/55, 100/99, 243/242
The two unite in 27et, where both 56/55 and 64/63 are tempered out.
Another possible path, which is a weak extension, is to temper out 441/440, 540/539, or 2401/2400, leading to octacot, discussed separately.
