* [[Dicot]], an exotemperament which generates 3/2 by stacking two 5/4's so that the mapping dictates that 5/4 and [[6/5]] are equated.

* [[Father]], an exotemperament which equates [[4/3]] and 5/4 as a single "fourth-third" interval, from which it derives its name.

* [[Augmented (temperament)|Augmented]], which splits the octave into three equal parts, each representing [[5/4]].

* [[Sensi]], generated by sharp supermajor thirds representing [[9/7]] and [[13/10]], such that a stack of two gives a major sixth approximating [[5/3]].
* [[Sensi]], generated by sharp supermajor thirds representing [[9/7]] and [[13/10]], such that a stack of two gives a major sixth approximating [[5/3]], and a stack of seven gives [[6/1]].
* [[Squares]], generated by flat supermajor thirds representing [[9/7]] and [[14/11]], such that a stack of four gives [[8/3]].
