'''Quarter-comma meantone''' is the tuning of [[meantone]] temperament which makes the perfect fifth ([[3/2]]) the fourth root of 5, or in other words 696.578 [[cent]]s. This means the fifth is flattened by 1/4 of the syntonic comma ([[81/80]] ratio) of 21.506 cents, which is to say by 5.377 cents, hence the name quarter-comma or 1/4-comma meantone. It is the tuning where the major third ([[5/4]]) is tuned pure, and the minor third ([[6/5]]) and the fifth are equally flat by 1/4 syntonic comma. It is also the tuning where the whole tone is the exact logarithmic average (e.g. cents average) between the greater tone of [[9/8]] and the lesser tone of [[10/9]], and hence it can be argued it is the only tuning which is strictly "mean tone". It is the minimax tuning for 5-limit meantone, meaning the maximum error on the 5-limit [[tonality diamond]] is minimized. It is also the minimax tuning for septimal meantone in the 7- and 9-limit odd limits, and for meanpop, the version of 11-limit meantone which tunes 11/8 to the doubly diminished fifth, C-Gbb. Moreover, historically it was the predominant tuning of Western common-practice music in the latter part of the Renaissance and the early modern (17th century) era.
'''Quarter-comma meantone''' is the tuning of [[meantone]] temperament which makes the perfect fifth ([[3/2]]) the fourth root of 5, or in other words 696.578 [[cent]]s. This means the fifth is flattened by {{frac|1|4}} of the syntonic comma ([[81/80]] ratio) of 21.506{{cent}}, which is to say by 5.377{{cent}}, hence the name.  


Because of all of these features, it has a certain claim to be considered the canonical meantone tuning and often "meantone" is taken to mean quarter-comma specifically. The traditional interval names, listed below, may be considered to have their older traditional tuning in the quarter-comma meantone tunings listed below. However, other tunings (besides [[12edo]] which is ubiquitous but not an especially good tuning for meantone) may be preferred. Note, for instance, that the doubly augmented second and the doubly diminished fourth are both neutral thirds, about six cents apart. If we want a tuning which will equate the two, we need to use [[31edo]] instead.
Quarter-comma meantone is the tuning where the major third ([[5/4]]) is tuned pure, and the minor third ([[6/5]]) and the fifth are equally flat by {{frac|1|4}} syntonic comma. It is also the tuning where the whole tone is the exact [[geometric mean]] between the greater tone of [[9/8]] and the lesser tone of [[10/9]] (the "semiptolemaic major second" sqrt(5/4)), from which the term "meantone" is derived, and many argue that it is the only tuning which is strictly "mean tone". It is the minimax tuning for 5-limit meantone, meaning the maximum error on the [[5-odd-limit]] [[tonality diamond]] is minimized. It is also the minimax tuning for septimal meantone in the [[7-odd-limit|7-]] and [[9-odd-limit]], and for meanpop (the version of 11-limit meantone which tunes 11/8 to the doubly diminished fifth, C–G𝄫) in the [[11-odd-limit]]. Moreover, historically it was the predominant tuning of Western common-practice music in the latter part of the Renaissance and the early modern (17th century) era.
