Undecimal meantone maps the [[11/8]] to the double-augmented third (C–E𝄪), and tridecimal meantone maps the [[13/8]] to the double-augmented fifth (C–G𝄪). Note that the minor third conflates 13/11 with 6/5, and that 11/10~13/12 is a double-augmented unison; 12/11 is a double-diminished third; and 14/13 is a minor second.

Meanpop maps the 11/8 to the double-diminished fifth (C–G𝄫), and tridecimal meanpop still maps the 13/8 to the double-augmented fifth (C–G𝄪). Note also 11/10 is a double-diminished third; 12/11~13/12, double-augmented unison; and 14/13, minor second.

However, while 12edo ends up near-optimal, the only valid [[diamond monotone]] tuning for sharptone is [[5edo]]. Anything flat of it has ~12/7 and ~7/4 in the wrong order (and so should be dominant) and anything sharp of it has ~5/4 and ~4/3 in the wrong order (and so should not be meantone).

The 11-limit extension was named by Gene Ward Smith in 2004<ref name="meantone & meanpop 2004"/>.
