The [[7/4]] of septimal meantone is the augmented sixth, C-A#, and other septimal intervals are [[7/6]], C-D#, the augmented second, [[7/5]], C-F#, the tritone, and [[21/16]], C-E#, the augmented third. Septimal meantone tempers out the common 7-limit commas [[126/125]] and [[225/224]] and in fact can be defined as the 7-limit temperament that tempers out any two of 81/80, 126/125 and 225/224.
