An 8th-octave temperament can be described by temperament merging of edos whose greatest common divisor is 8.
 
Temperaments discussed elsewhere include:
* ''Octant'' → [[Schismatic family#Octant|Schismatic family]]
 
== Octatonic ==
[[12/11]] is very close to 1 step of 8edo, and hence this temperament tempers out the octatonic comma, the difference between a stack of 8 12/11's and the octave. The octatonic temperament makes a [[consistent circle]].

Octium temperament is named after an "extended provisional" name for oxygen, the 8th element. The term [[oxygen]] itself is already the name of an exotemperament.
Octium temperament is named after an "extended provisional" name for oxygen, the 8th element. The term [[oxygen]] itself is already the name of an exotemperament. It reaches [[24/23]] in one generator and [[19/16]] in two.
