The neutral clan of temperaments tempers out 243/242.

Neutral

Neutral can be thought of as the 2.3.11 version of either mohajira or maqamic, as well as suhajira and ringo. Among other things, it is the temperament optimizing the neutral tetrad.

Mohaha

Mohaha is the 2.3.5.11 subgroup temperament with a generator of a neutral third, two of which make up a fifth, and which can be taken to represent 11/9. Mohaha can be thought of, intuitively, as "meantone with quartertones"; as is the 3/2 generator subdivided in half, so is the ~25/24 chromatic semitone divided into two equal ~33/32 quarter tones (in the 2.3.5.11 subgroup). Within this paradigm, mohaha is the temperament that splits the 3/2 into two equal 11/9's, that splits the 6/5 into two equal 11/10~12/11's, and that maps four 3/2's to 5/1. It has a heptatonic mos with three larger steps and four smaller ones, going sLsLsLs. Taking septimal meantone mapping of 7 leads to #Migration, flattone mapping of 7 leads to #Ptolemy, and dominant mapping of 7 leads to #Neutrominant.

Neutrominant

Deutsch

The neutrominant temperament (formerly maqamic temperament) has a hemififth generator (~11/9) and tempers out 36/35 and 121/120. It makes the most sense if viewed as an adaptive temperament, whereby 7/4 and 9/5 simply share an equivalence class in the resulting scales, but don't need to share a particular tempered "middle-of-the-road" intonation.
