=== Whole tone scale ===

Decaononic temperaments can be represented in EDOs which compress the 12edo scale to get the major second to be equal to 10/9. In [[79edo]], for example, a whole tone itself contains a mini-12edo keymap inside it, and the final 7 notes are a truncated tetrachord. If played naively, this produces ~~a rather~~ flat fifth of 638.413c just, or 637.974c (79edo). In an effect this makes for a [[Glacial7]]-type scale.

In [[79edo]], for example, a whole tone itself contains a mini-12edo keymap inside it, and the final 7 notes are a truncated tetrachord.

=== Devil's dozen ===

Devil's dozen technique is playing in [[13edo]] as if it were 12edo. Since 10/9 is closely equal to 2\13 of the octave, it can be assigned to be a 13edo whole tone. The resulting comma that is tempered out is {{monzo|-11 26 -13}} or fully 2541865828329/2500000000000 - devil's tridecalimma.

=== Hitchcock archaeotonic ===

10/9 is found at -3 [[hitchcock]] generators, and the use of this index-3 subset in a decaononic manner produces an [[6L 1s|archaeotonic (6L 1s)]] scale combining six 10/9 tones and a [[16/15]] semitone. This is neither especially accurate nor especially inaccurate, and fits well with 13edo.
