A '''non-over-2 temperament''', or '''non-/2 temperament''', is a [[regular temperament]] that tempers a [[subgroup]] corresponding to a harmonic series chord r:n<sub>1</sub>:...:n<sub>k</sub> where r ≠ 2, but is not meant to approximate a chord of the form 2:m<sub>1</sub>:...:m<sub>k</sub>. Non-over-2 temperaments give regular-temperament interpretations to edos that approximate over-2 chords such as 4:5:6:7:11 poorly, such as [[14edo]], [[18edo]], [[23edo]] and [[29edo]].

== Example ==
[[Sensi]] is ''effectively'' a non-over-2 temperament provided you restrict yourself to the sensi[8] MOS. The sensi[8] MOS only has a 5:6:7:9:13 chord, but no chord of the form 2:m<sub>1</sub>:...:m<sub>k</sub> (except 2:3). Thus sensi can be viewed as a 2.6/5.7/5.9/5.13/10 or 2.3.6/5.7/5.13/10 temperament.
