'''1/7-comma meantone''' is the tuning of [[meantone]] temperament which tunes the fifth as 698.883 [[cent]]s. This means the fifth is flattened by 1/7 of the [[81/80|syntonic comma (81/80)]] of 21.506 cents, which is to say by 3.072 cents.

It was proposed by Jean-Baptiste Romieu in 1758. It is the tuning used by Farley’s House of Pianos in Madison, and advocated by its owner Tim Farley.

It was proposed by Jean-Baptiste Romieu in 1758. It is the tuning used by Farley’s House of Pianos in Madison, Wisconsin, and advocated by its owner Tim Farley.

It is approximated near perfectly by [[91edo]] and by the [[POTE]] tuning of the [[domineering]] temperament.

It is approximated near perfectly by the c val of [[91edo]] and by the [[POTE]] tuning of the [[domineering]] temperament.

[[135/128]] is the [[eigenmonzo]] (unchanged interval) of 1/7-comma meantone.
