'''Shallowtone''' is a [[5-limit]] and higher [[temperament]] which tempers out the [[shallowtone comma]]. It is generated by a flat fifth, which is typically sharper than in [[mavila]] but flatter than in [[7edo]]. This gives it a high [[error]], although not as much as mavila. The ~[[5/4]] is reached by minus ten fifths octave-reduced, which is an augmented third (C-Ex) in melodic antidiatonic notation and a diminished third (C-Ebb) in harmonic antidiatonic notation. The only reasonable extension to the 7-limit tempers out [[36/35]]. Additionally, there is a weak extension [[Greenwoodmic temperaments#Semishallowtone|semishallowtone]] with a half-octave period, tempering out [[405/392]].

The name was coined by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]] in 2024. It refers to how it is an opposite to [[deeptone]] (which is on the other side of 7edo), as well as because it is just below the diatonic "surface".
