[[Septimal meantone]], which is well-represented by the historically prevalent [[quarter-comma meantone]], tempers together all three of the sevenths (9/5~16/9~25/14), so either of the above interpretations may be relevant for dominant seventh chords found in common-practice music.

In [[archytas]] temperament, which tempers out [[64/63]], ~16/9 is equated with ~[[7/4]] rather than 25/14, resulting in an [[Dyadic chord#Essentially tempered dyadic chord|essentially just]] [[7-odd-limit]] chord that tempers together [[4:5:6:7]] and [[36:45:54:64]]: | In [[archytas]] temperament, which tempers out [[64/63]], ~16/9 is equated with ~[[7/4]] rather than 25/14, resulting in an [[Dyadic chord#Essentially tempered dyadic chord|essentially just]] [[7-odd-limit]] chord that tempers together [[4:5:6:7]] and [[36:45:54:64]]: | ||

[[Dominant (temperament)|Dominant temperament]] combines archytas with meantone, tempering out both 81/80 and 64/63, and as a result also tempers out [[36/35]], equating 4:5:6:7 with all of the 5-limit dominant seventh chords of meantone. Since [[12edo]] is a good tuning of Dominant temperament, this simpler septimal interpretation may also be relevant for dominant seventh chords in music originally composed for 12edo — particularly in performance styles that use more flexible intonation (such as Barbershop). | [[Dominant (temperament)|Dominant temperament]] combines archytas with meantone, tempering out both 81/80 and 64/63, and as a result also tempers out [[36/35]], equating 4:5:6:7 with all of the 5-limit dominant seventh chords of meantone.

<!-- Note: 12edo also supports Mint temperament via Dominant, but I'm intentionally omitting it here for simplicity. It's easy enough to find via [[36/35]].--> | <!-- Note: 12edo also supports Mint temperament via Dominant, but I'm intentionally omitting it here for simplicity.
