Starling tempers out 126/125, and like marvel it has the same generators as the 5-limit. An excellent tuning for starling is [[77edo]], but 31, 46 or 58 also work nicely. | Starling tempers out 126/125, and like marvel it has the same generators as the 5-limit.

Breed is a 7-limit microtemperament which tempers out 2401/2400. While it is so accurate it hardly matters what is used to temper it, or whether it is even tempered at all, 2578et will certainly do the trick. Breed has generators of a 49/40 neutral third, and 10/7.<br /> | Breed is a 7-limit microtemperament which tempers out 2401/2400.

Jove, formerly known as wonder, tempers out 243/242 and 441/440. Wonder has been depreciated as a name due to conflict with another temperament also given that name. Jove converts breed into an 11-limit temperament via 441/440, which equates 49/40 with 11/9, and 243/242, which tells us 11/9 can serve as a neutral third. While jove is no longer a super-accurate microtemperament like breed, it has the advantage of adjusting its tuning to deal with the 11-limit. 72 and 130 are good edos for jove, and if that doesn't suit there's 476edo.<br /> | Jove, formerly known as wonder, tempers out 243/242 and 441/440.
