The [[5-limit]] parent [[comma]] of the [[meantone]] family is the Didymus or [[Wikipedia: syntonic comma| syntonic comma]], [[81/80]]. This is the one they all temper out. The [[monzo]] for 81/80 goes {{monzo| -4 4 -1 }}, and that can be flipped around to the corresponding [[Wedgies and Multivals|wedgie]], &lt;&lt;1 4 4||, which tells us that the period is an octave, the generator is a fifth, and four fifths go to make up a 5/1 interval.

* [[Wikipedia: Septimal meantone temperament]]


The comma {{Monzo| -13 10 0 -1 }} for septimal meantone tells us that the interval class for 7 is 10 generator steps up. Hence, the [[7/4]] of septimal meantone is the augmented sixth, C-A#, and other septimal intervals are 7/6, C-D#, the augmented second, and [[7/5]], C-F#, the tritone. The [[Wedgies_and_Multivals|wedgie]] for septimal meantone is &lt;&lt;1 4 10 4 13 12||, again telling us how to get to 5 and 7 in terms of generator steps. The temperament, aside from what is on the normal list, tempers out 126/125 and 225/224, and [[31edo]] is a good tuning for it.
