'''4/9-comma meantone''' is a tuning of meantone where the [[3/2|fifth]] is flattened by 4/9 of the [[81/80|syntonic comma]], producing a fifth of 692.397 cents. This is approximated well by [[26edo]]. The eigenmonzo is [[2500/2187]] (231.569849¢), which is only 0.396¢ sharp of [[8/7]] (231.174094¢). | '''4/9-comma meantone''' is a tuning of meantone where the [[3/2|fifth]] is flattened by 4/9 of the [[81/80|syntonic comma]], producing a fifth of 692.397 cents.
