Defined as the 2460 & 4320 temperament, starting with the 13-limit. Named "minutes" for period-60, since there's 60 minutes in an hour. In light of 12 being a divisor of 60, minutes tempers out the [[Kirnberger's atom]], and in the limits below 13, it's a contorted atomic temperament. | Defined as the 2460 & 4320 temperament, starting with the 13-limit.
