It can be described as {{nowrap| 12 & 140 }}, and is the unique temperament that tempers together the syntonic and septimal commas and equates it with a stack of three [[marvel comma]]s. A [[Pythagorean comma]] is then found as a stack of four marvel commas. In certain 7-limit adaptive-tuning practice, the marvel comma corresponds to a melodic unit called a [[kleisma #As an interval region|kleisma]], with three kleismas making a comma, so this temperament may be useful for modeling that. [[292edo]] makes for an excellent tuning. | ||
