This table shows all the simple intervals of POTE [[Meantone family #Septimal meantone|septimal meantone]], which includes the entire 7-limit tonality diamond. Other relevant tables of meantone intervals are the table of [[quarter-comma meantone]] intervals and the table of [[31edo #Intervals|31 edo intervals]].

In [[12edo]] the diminished second vanishes, so this cornucopia of intervals collapses to a mere 12. None of the intervals is inherently septimal in 12edo, because they all have simpler 5-limit descriptions.
