Below are listed some '''very low accuracy temperaments'''. Temperaments with exceedingly low accuracy such as these tend to [[tempering out|temper out]] very large intervals such as [[9/8]], [[10/9]], [[32/27]], or [[15/14]], equating wildly different interval sizes with [[semitone (interval size measure)|semitone]]-level or even greater [[error]]s. A lot of temperaments listed here don't have [[diamond monotone]] tunings because of their sheer inaccuracy. As a result, all of them are right on or even beyond the edge of what can be sensibly called a temperament at all; that is to say, they are [[exotemperament]]s.

== Sept ==
Sept preserves the 2.3.7-subgroup of mapping of 7edo, and harmonic 5 is mapped to an independent generator. As harmonic 5 is way more accurately approximated than 7 by 7edo, this temperament provides little improvement to 7edo's 7-limit tuning, so in what way this temperament is useful remains unexplained. It would make much more sense to, for example, preserve the 5-limit structure of 7edo and give prime 7 an independent generator instead, which is exactly what [[jamesbond]] does.
This temperament used to be known as ''mujannab''.
