Misty, 87 & 99, is a 7-limit temperament with

  • generator 3/2 (period-reduced: 25/21)
  • period 1/3-octave which represents 63/50, the difference between 56/25 and 16/9.

It results from tempering out the following 2 commas:

  • 5120/5103, the aberschisma, which equates 64/63 and 81/80
  • 3136/3125, the Didacus comma

Derivation of 1/3-octave period

  1. 128/125 = 126/125 * 64/63 is equated to 126/125 * 81/80 by the aberschisma
  2. 81/80 itself = 126/125 * 225/224
  3. Didacus equates 225/224 to 126/125
  4. So we have 128/125 ~= 126/125 * 81/80 = 126/125 * 126/125 * 225/224 ~= (126/125)3
  5. Hence, 2/1 = 5/4 * 5/4 * 5/4 * 128/125 ~= (5/4 * 126/125)3 = (63/50)3
