A non-over-1 temperament is a regular temperament that tempers a subgroup corresponding to a harmonic series chord r:n1:...:nk where r ≠ 1, but is not meant to approximate a chord of the form 1:m1:...:mk. Non-over-1 temperaments give regular-temperament interpretations to edos that approximate over-1 chords such as 4:5:6:7:11 poorly, such as 14edo, 18edo, 23edo and 29edo.

Examples

Petrtri

Define petrtri as the 2.9/5.11/5.13/5 subgroup temperament supported by 13edo and 21edo. Then petrtri mainly approximates 5:9:11:13, and this chord is found twice in the oneirotonic MOS petrtri[8]. Both 13edo and 21edo support the -7 generators = 5/4 mapping, so petrtri extends to the 2.5.9.11.13 subgroup; however, a 4:5:9:11:13 chord must span 10 generators (11 notes) thus must go outside the 8-note MOS. Thus it is fair to say that approximations of 5:9:11:13 in the 8-note MOS use this non-over-2 temperament.

Sensi

Sensi is effectively a non-over-1 temperament provided you restrict yourself to the sensi[8] MOS. The sensi[8] MOS only has a 5:6:7:9:13 chord, but no chord of the form 2:m1:...:mk (except 2:3). Thus sensi can be viewed as a 2.6/5.7/5.9/5.13/10 or 2.3.6/5.7/5.13/10 temperament. (See x31eq data page.)

Tridec

Tridec is a temperament generated by a generator near 455.2178¢ (for example, 11\29 or 14\37) and has an 8-note MOS. If you restrict to the 8-note MOS, Tridec is an 2.7/5.11/5.13/5 temperament that tempers the chord 5:7:11:13; one generator represents a 13/10, three generators represent a 11/10, -4 generators represent a 7/5.

Tridec essentially contains all the notes of 2.3.5 porcupine temperament and satisfies all its relations; hence it is essentially the same as 13-limit Ammonite.
