This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.

An 8th-octave temperament can be described by temperament merging of edos whose greatest common divisor is 8.

Temperaments discussed elsewhere include:

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

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.
