One important feature of subgroups involving 3 and 11 is the compressed octave at the interval designated 243/121; in this temperament, it is equated to 99/49 and placed four generators up. In flatter tunings of the generator, this is closer to a true octave. This interval is meriting of special treatment in terms of consonance and dissonance.

In flatter tunings of the generator, this is closer to a true octave. This interval is meriting of special treatment in terms of consonance and dissonance.
