For example, you could substitute the 3rd harmonic for the very similar 769th harmonic. By doing this, you could convert a 2.3.5 [[subgroup temperament]] into a 2.769.5 subgroup temperament. Or, you could convert a 3.5.7 [[combination product set]] into a 769.5.7 combination product set. This could allow for a whole array of subtly different harmonic flavours of existing tunings, while preserving their basic melodic and harmonic structure.

You could also substitute a simpler harmonic ''n'' for two more complex harmonics, to make a dual-substitute-n temperament{{idiosyncratic}}, with similar aims (but different tactics) to a [[dual-fifth]] temperament.
