'''The Nexus''' is a collection of temperaments of different ranks, including subgroup temperaments, that all temper out the [[nexus comma]] – the unnoticeable comma with the ratio 1771561/1769472, and a monzo of {{monzo|-16 -3 0 0 6}}. Among the known branches of this collection are nexus, schisnex, nexiquart, altinex, and tribilo.

Because the nexus comma is the difference between (121/96)<sup>3</sup> and 2/1, all nexus temperaments divide 2/1 into three equal parts of (approximately) 400 cents.
