Line 2: Line 2:


The comma being divided here is the syntonic comma ([[81/80]]).
The comma being divided here is the syntonic comma ([[81/80]]).
Temperaments that fall outside of the diamond monotone range will not provide most of the advantages that meantone usually provides, but they are included for completeness.
