	A '''well temperament''' is a [[circulating temperament]] where the intervals in a class are not all tuned the same. It is ~~intermediate between~~ an [[~~MOS scale~~]]~~, where for a class containing a generator all but one~~ of ~~the intervals are tuned~~ the same~~, and a max variety n n tone scale, where for a class containing a generator all the intervals are tuned uniquely~~.		A '''well temperament''' is a [[circulating temperament]] where the intervals in a class are not all tuned the same. As a consequence of their irregularity, it is possible in extreme cases for well temperaments to have classes where they tune each instance of an interval in that class uniquely, as if they were [[Just intonation\|just]] scales of the same [[rank]] as their cardinality.
