'''Dominant''' is a [[regular temperament|temperament]] [[tempering out]] the [[81/80|syntonic comma (81/80)]] and [[64/63|septimal comma (64/63)]] in the 7-limit. It also tempers out the [[36/35|septimal quartertone (36/35)]], as 36/35 = (64/63)(81/80). It is the unique temperament that identifies the [[harmonic seventh chord]] with the [[dominant seventh chord]], which is a familiar feature from [[12edo]]. | '''Dominant''' is a [[regular temperament|temperament]] [[tempering out]] the [[81/80|syntonic comma (81/80)]] and [[64/63|septimal comma (64/63)]] in the 7-limit.
