7th octave temperament occurs through temperament merging any two edos whose greatest common divisor is 7. A comma that frequently appears in 7th-octave temps is akjaysma, which sets 105/64 to be equal to 5\7.
Temperaments discussed elsewhere include:
- Septant → Schismatic family
- Brahmagupta → Ragismic microtemperaments
- Absurdity → Syntonic chromatic equivalence continuum
Nitrogen
Described as 140 & 1407 temperament in the 7-limit, named after the 7th element for being period-7 and also because 140 and 1407 only contain numbers 7 and 14, atomic number and atomic weight of nitrogen respectively. On top of this connection to the number 7, it also reaches 7th harmonic 7 generators down.
