1/1-comma “meantone” (actually mavila) |
680.449 |
Not meantone but included for reference
|
7edo |
685.714 |
Not meantone. It and anything flatter than it cannot generate a 12-tone MOS.
|
3/4-comma meantone |
685.825 |
Whole tone is not between 10/9 and 9/8, so whether it counts as meantone is very questionable.

|
1/2-comma meantone |

Close to 92edo, 59edo. Historically significant (see historical temperaments. Whole tone not between 10/9 and 9/8 (it’s exactly 10/9)
|
7/15-comma meantone |
691.919 |
Close to 85edo. This is the first tuning on this list which is unambiguously meantone, since the whole tone is between 10/9 and 9/8.

699.804 |
|
1/11-comma meantone |
700.000 |
Effectively indistinguishable from 12edo. Does not generate a 19-tone MOS scale, so whether it counts as meantone is very questionable.
|
1/12-comma meantone |
700.163 |
No 19-tone MOS
|
1/13-comma meantone |
700.301 |
No 19-tone MOS

700.419 |
No 19-tone MOS
|
1/15-comma meantone |
700.521 |
No 19-tone MOS
|
1/16-comma meantone |
700.611 |
No 19-tone MOS
|
1/17-comma meantone |
700.690 |
No 19-tone MOS
|
1/18-comma meantone |
700.760 |
No 19-tone MOS
|
0/1-comma “meantone” (Pythagorean tuning) |
701.955 |
Not meantone but included for reference. 9/8 is exact. Anything sharper will have whole tones not between 10/9 and 9/8, along with continuing to lack a 19-tone MOS.
