In flattone tunings, the fifth is typically even flatter than that of [[19edo]]. Here, 9 fourths get to the interval class for 7, so that [[7/4]] is a diminished seventh (C-B𝄫), [[7/6]] is a diminished third (C-E𝄫), and [[7/5]] is a doubly diminshed fifth (C-G𝄫). In general, septimal subminor intervals are diminished and septimal supermajor intervals are augmented, which makes it quite easy to learn flattone notation. Good tunings for flattone are [[45edo]], [[64edo]], and [[71edo]].
