For example, you could substitute the 3rd harmonic out for the 769th harmonic, whose [[octave reduction]] is very close to the 3rd harmonic's. By doing this, you could convert a 2.3.5 [[subgroup temperament]] into a 2.5.769 subgroup temperament. Or, you could convert a 3.5.7 [[combination product set]] into a 5.7.769 combination product set.

You could also substitute a simpler harmonic ''n'' in a dual-n temperament for two more complex harmonics, to make a '''dual-substitute-n temperament'''{{idiosyncratic}}. For example, you could convert a 2.3-.3+.5 subgroup temperament into a 2.5.767.769 subgroup temperament.
