The '''compton family''', otherwise known as the '''aristoxenean family''', of [[regular temperament|temperaments]] [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[Pythagorean comma]] ([[ratio]]: 531441/524288, {{monzo|legend=1| -19 12 }}, and hence the fifths form a closed 12-note [[circle of fifths]], identical to [[12edo]]. While the tuning of the fifth will be that of 12edo, two [[cent]]s flat, the tuning of the larger primes is not so constrained, and the point of these temperaments is to improve on it.
The '''compton family''', otherwise known as the '''aristoxenean family''', of [[regular temperament|temperaments]] [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[Pythagorean comma]] ([[ratio]]: 531441/524288, {{monzo|legend=1| -19 12 }}, and hence the fifths form a closed 12-note [[circle of fifths]], identical to [[12edo]]. While the tuning of the fifth is fixed to 7 steps of 12edo, about 2{{cent}} flat of [[just]], these temperaments aim to add tunings for higher primes which are more in tune than in 12edo.

Duodecim uses exactly the same mapping as the 7-limit of 12edo, only correcting its poor approximation of prime 11.
