Original Wikitext content:
The most common kind of comma pump encountered in "non-xenharmonic" Western music is the meantone comma pump, for which there is a separate page: [[Meantone comma pump examples]]. These work in any meantone temperament, including [[19edo]], [[26edo]], [[31edo]], etc. Since standard notation is based on meantone, these don't appear unusual in any way. However, comma pumps of other commas tempered out by [[12edo]] are also found. These necessarily involve spelling an interval unusually (for example spelling a major third as a diminished fourth), because they involve an enharmonic pun (e.g. G#~Ab). =Augmented (128/125) comma pumps= * //Looney Tunes// theme song, c. 1940.
