Tempering out this comma leads to the 5-limit version of the [[ennealimmal]] temperament, which remarkably splits the octave into nine equal parts. Since the 7-limit temperament is far more natural to think of than the 5-limit, the 5-limit temperament is only provided below for bookkeeping purposes.
Tempering out this comma leads to the 5-limit version of the [[ennealimmal]] temperament, which remarkably splits the octave into nine equal parts. Since the [[7-limit]] temperament (definable by tempering out both [[2401/2400]] and [[4375/4374]], the two smallest superparticular ratios in the 7-limit) is far more natural to think of than the 5-limit, the 5-limit temperament is only provided below for bookkeeping purposes.
