	'''~~Detempering~~''' is the process of taking a tempered pitch system and replacing each of its pitches with a nearby [[JI]] pitch. Ideally the resultant JI pitch system will have low [[prime limit]] and a compact lattice.		In [[regular temperament]] theory, '''detempering''' is the process of taking a tempered pitch system and replacing each of its pitches with a nearby [[JI]] pitch. Ideally the resultant JI pitch system will have low [[prime limit]] and a compact lattice.

	It is a distinct concept from a [[Neji\|quasi-equal rational tuning, or neji]], which takes the pitches directly from a mode of the harmonic series to approximate a tempered system.
