'''262144/253125''', the quasidozen comma, is a 5-limit comma measuring about 60.6 cents. It is the amount by which five [[16/15]] exceed [[4/3]].  Tempering out this comma in the 5-limit results in the '''quasidozen temperament''', which generates a quasidozenal ([[12L 1s]]) MOS, essentially a compressed 12edo scale with an additional ultramajor seventh. In addition to [[12edo]] itself, this temperament is less accurately supported by several small EDOs of the form 12n+1 such as [[25edo]], [[37edo]], and [[49edo]] (all containing superpyth/archy-style fifths).
