Tempering | [[Tempering out]] this comma leads to the [[metric]] temperament, which splits the syntonic comma into three equal parts, one for the septimal kleisma, and two for the [[126/125|septimal semicomma]]. It is also tempered out in [[septimal meantone]], but this is a trivial case since 81/80 and 225/224 are both tempered out. | ||
See [[ | See [[Metric microtemperaments]] for a collection of rank-2 temperaments where it is tempered out. | ||
