Septisemi temperaments

Revision as of 14:46, 19 November 2025 by FloraC (talk | contribs) (- CTE & POTE tunings)
This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.

This is a collection of very low complexity temperaments tempering out the septimal minor semitone, 21/20, and hence equating 5/3 with 7/4, and 10/7 with 3/2.

Temperaments discussed elsewhere are:

Considered below are fluorine and sodium.
