'''Flattone''' is an alternative [[extension]] to [[5-limit]] [[meantone]], the [[temperament]] that [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[81/80|syntonic comma (81/80)]]. It is generated by a fifth that is typically flatter than that of meantone, and nine of those reach the [[pitch class]] of [[8/7]], so that [[7/4]] is a diminished seventh (C-B𝄫), [[7/6]] is a diminished third (C-E𝄫), and [[7/5]] is a doubly diminshed fifth (C-G𝄫).
 
11- and 13-limit extensions are fairly obvious, using the heavily tempered [[chromatic semitone]] for the undecimal quartertone of [[33/32]] and the tridecimal third tone of [[27/26]]. 11/8 is an augmented fourth, and 13/8 is a minor sixth, conflated with [[8/5]].
 
See [[Meantone family #Flattone]] for technical data.
