'''Flattone''' is an alternative [[extension]] to [[5-limit]] [[meantone]], the [[temperament]] that [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[81/80|syntonic comma (81/80)]]. It is generated by a fifth that is typically flatter than that of [[septimal meantone]], and nine of those reach the [[pitch class]] of [[8/7]], so that [[7/4]] is a diminished seventh (C–B𝄫), [[7/6]] is a diminished third (C–E𝄫), and [[7/5]] is a doubly diminished fifth (C–G𝄫). Although 7/4 is simpler than in septimal meantone, the full [[9-odd-limit]] [[tonality diamond]] is more complex as the 5 and 7 are reached by going in opposite directions, while also being less accurate.

However, it makes up for that by having simpler 11- and 13-limit interpretations – the whole tone is now flat enough that it can function as [[9/8]], [[10/9]], and [[11/10]], tempering out [[100/99]] and making [[11/8]] an augmented fourth (C–F#). This means the major third functions as both 5/4 and 11/9. Tempering out [[65/64]] means it also represents their [[mediant]] [[16/13]], making [[13/8]] a minor sixth (C–A♭) and a full otonal chord of 8:9:10:11:12:13:14:15:16 accessible with a gamut of 16 notes, compared to 19 for tridecimal meantone or the 29 required by [[meanpop]].
