Revision as of 11:25, 20 June 2026

This page collects deleted entries of regular temperaments from the Xenharmonic Wiki due to not meeting our notability guidelines, although other materials may still reference them. We recommend to refer to these temperaments with an ET join (e. g. "11-limit 12 & 85") or as a restriction of a different temperament (e. g. "no-7's cassandra").

Name Subgroup ET join Reason for deletion
Oviminor 5- to 7-limit 19 & 1600 Pointless microtemperament: more complex than egads (which shares the same generator) at lower accuracy
Maqamschismic 2.3.5.11.(13) 41 & 53 Canonical restriction of cassandra, lack of unique value
Quintapole 7- to 11-limit 12 & 85 Medium accuracy is not worth the high complexity; confusing name (could lead to confusion with similarly named "quintupole")
Quintapole > Galeleic 13- to 19-limit 12f & 85fg Medium accuracy is not worth the high complexity; not even supported by any patent vals
Quintapole > Catagali 13- to 19-limit 12f & 85g Medium accuracy is not worth the high complexity; not even supported by any patent vals
Quintapole > Quintain 11- to 13-limit 12 & 85e Medium accuracy is not worth the high complexity
Bixby 5-limit 1 & 1c Extreme exotemperament: too coarse even for detempering
Archon 5-limit 1 & 1b Extreme exotemperament: too coarse even for detempering
Seesaw 2.3.5.(11) 1b & 2 Extreme exotemperament: too coarse even for detempering
Seesaw > Heavy windmill 7- to 11-limit 1bd & 2 Extreme exotemperament: too coarse even for detempering
Seesaw > Light windmill 7- to 11-limit 1b & 2 Extreme exotemperament: too coarse even for detempering
Sixseven 2.3.7.(13) 1 & 3 Extreme exotemperament: too coarse even for detempering
Sixseven > Heaven 2.3.7.11.(13) 1e & 3 Extreme exotemperament: too coarse even for detempering
Dog 2.3.19 7 & 16 Pointless exotemperament: unenlightening restriction of armodue/armodog, lack of unique value
Sept 7- to 13-limit 7 & 14de Pointless exotemperament: no reason to leave prime 5 free in 7et rather than prime 7
Counterorson 7-limit 53 & 1718 Pointless microtemperament: high badness at all but unusable complexity
Nanoquectismic 7-limit 306 & 665 Pointless microtemperament: high badness at unusable complexity
