A related somewhat more practical temperament is [[deeptone]], which is generated by a fifth slightly sharp of 7edo's fifth instead of slightly flat, and shallowtone's mapping of 6/5 is the same as deeptone's mapping of 5/4. Basically, shallowtone is to deeptone as [[mavila]] is to [[meantone]]. | A related somewhat more practical temperament is [[deeptone]], which is generated by a fifth slightly sharp of 7edo's fifth instead of slightly flat, and shallowtone's mapping of 6/5 is the same as deeptone's mapping of 5/4.
