This notion of the frequency equivalent of monzos naturally extends into the frequency equivalent of mappings, using the place values of the selected positional numeral system as the basis elements instead of primes. Thus, frequency temperaments can "[[temper out]]" commas in a similar way to regular temperaments, but because period reduction is now performed through addition/subtraction rather than multiplication/division, tempering out a [[comma]] means mapping it to 0 (the additive identity) instead of 1 (the multiplicative identity). | This notion of the frequency equivalent of monzos naturally extends into the frequency equivalent of mappings, using the place values of the selected positional numeral system as the basis elements instead of primes.
