'''2/7-comma meantone''' is the tuning of [[meantone]] temperament in which the just perfect fifth of [[3/2]] is flattened by 2/7 of a syntonic comma ([[81/80]])

'''2/7-comma meantone''' is the tuning of [[meantone]] temperament in which the just perfect fifth of [[3/2]] is flattened by 2/7 of a syntonic comma ([[81/80]]) – that is, to about 695.81 [[cents]]. It is one of the meantone tunings proposed early on, by Gioseffo Zarlino, Francisco Salinas and Vincenzo Galilei. It may be described as the regular tuning which tempers out 81/80 and tunes 2/1 and [[25/24]] purely. It is also the tuning where the major third ([[5/4]]) and the minor third ([[6/5]]) are equally flat from JI by 1/7 syntonic comma (''c''. 3.1 cents). It is approximated roughly by [[50edo]] sharply and [[69edo]] flatly, and near perfectly by [[119edo]] using the b val flat 5th.
