  We have discovered both intermediate-order gravity mode and low-order
pressure mode pulsation in the same star, HD 209295. It is therefore both a
Gamma Doradus and a Delta Scuti star, which makes it the first pulsating star
to be a member of two classes.
  The star is a single-lined spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of
3.10575 d and an eccentricity of 0.352. Weak pulsational signals are found in
both the radial velocity and line-profile variations, allowing us to show that
the two highest-amplitude Gamma Doradus pulsation modes are consistent with l=1
and |m|=1.
  In our 280 h of BVI multi-site photometry we detected ten frequencies in the
light variations, one in the Delta Scuti regime and nine in the Gamma Doradus
domain. Five of the Gamma Doradus frequencies are exact integer multiples of
the orbital frequency. This observation leads us to suspect they are tidally
excited. Results of theoretical modeling (stability analysis, tidal excitation)
were consistent with the observations.
  We could not detect the secondary component of the system in infrared
photometry, suggesting that it may not be a main-sequence star. Archival data
of HD 209295 show a strong ultraviolet excess, the origin of which is not
known. The orbit of the primary is consistent with a secondary mass of M > 1.04
Msun indicative of a neutron star or a white dwarf companion.
