Shallowtone is a temperament where the shallowtone comma is tempered out. It is generated by a flattened perfect fifth, typically sharper than in mavila but flatter than in 7edo, and 5/4 is reached by minus ten fifths octave-reduced, which is an augmented third (C–E𝄪) in melodic antidiatonic notation and a diminished third (C–E𝄫) in harmonic antidiatonic notation. This gives it a high error, although not as much as mavila.
The only reasonable extension to the 7-limit tempers out 36/35. Additionally, there is a weak extension semishallowtone with a half-octave period, tempering out 405/392.
The name was coined by CompactStar in 2024. It refers to how it is an opposite to deeptone (which is on the other side of 7edo), as well as because it is just below the diatonic "surface".
See Mint temperaments #Shallowtone for technical data.
