Euler(Benedetti(c)) generates a JI group, which can be found by reducing it to a [[http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/Normal+lists#x-Normal interval lists|normal interval list]]. This group is characteristic of the comma, and is the group on which tempering by the comma takes place. For instance, Euler(Benedetti(225/224)) generates 2.3.5.7, the full 7-limit group, and tempering it out leads to a rank three temperament, marvel. However, Euler(Benedeti(3136/3125)) generates 2.5.7, and tempering it out generates a rank-two temperament of the 2.5.7 [[Just intonation subgroups|JI subgroup]], with mapping [&lt;1 0 -3|, &lt;0 2 5|] and an approximate 28/25 generator, which might be called 7-limit [[Chromatic pairs#Roulette|roulette]] temperament.

A comma such that the smallest interval in Euler(Benedetti(c)) is c may be called a //clipper comma//; clipper commas would seem to make for superior clippers, avoiding very small intervals. Some 7-limit clipper commas are 16807/16384, 525/512, 128/125, 49/48, 50/49, 3125/3072, 64/63, 81/80, 2048/2025, 245/243, 2109375/2097152, 1029/1024, 15625/15552, 225/224, 3136/3125, 5120/5103, 6144/6125, 2100875/2097152, 5250987/5242880, 65625/65536, 32805/32768, 703125/702464, 2401/2400, 4375/4374 and
