These temper out the keema, {{monzo| -5 -3 3 1 }} = [[875/864]]. Keemic temperaments include [[Jubilismic clan #Doublewide|doublewide]], [[Meantone family #Flattone|flattone]], [[Porcupine family #Septimal porcupine|porcupine]], [[Gamelismic clan #Superkleismic|superkleismic]], [[Magic family #Septimal magic|magic]], [[Kleismic family #Keemun|keemun]], [[11th-octave temperaments #Undeka|undeka]], and [[Sycamore family #Septimal sycamore|sycamore]]. Discussed below are quasitemp, chromo, barbad, hyperkleismic, and sevond.

Tempering out the keema is one of the two main ways septimal harmony is organized in EDOs of medium size, alongside [[myna]]. While myna makes the distance between 5/4 and 6/5 twice the distance between 9/7 and 5/4, keemic makes the two distances equal, resulting in the distance between the classical major and minor thirds being narrowed, or in other words [[7/6]] - [[6/5]] - [[5/4]] - [[9/7]] being made equidistant. EDOs with this structure include 15, 19, and 22.
