A subgroup temperament is a regular temperament defined on a just intonation subgroup that is not a full p-limit group.

For temperaments that omit various prime harmonics, see:

Below are some temperaments for composite subgroups and fractional subgroups. Obviously, no attempt has been made at completeness; attention is focused on subgroups containing interesting chords. The reader may also want to consult the page on Chromatic pairs.

2.3.35 subgroup

Shaka

See also: Kalismic temperaments

Two commas that split 2/1 in half, corresponding to convergents to sqrt(2), are the shaftesburisma S29/S41 and the kalisma S99, prompting to temper out {S29, S41, S99}, approximating /29 and /41 primodal chords well.

2.9.5.7 subgroup

Commatose

Commatose is a dual-fifth temperament which uses the Pythagorean comma as a generator. It was developed by Eliora to highlight the near-perfect expression of 9/8 by 1789edo, while at the same time the fact that it completely misses 3/2. It is described as the 460 & 1329 temperament. In the 13-limit extension 24 generators are equal to ~13/9.

Daemotertiaschis

See also: Schismatic family#Tertiaschis

Daemotertiaschis is produced by taking every other generator of tertiaschis, and the subgroup is chosen so it tempers out exactly the same commas. It is notable due to offering a daemotonic 7L 4s scale of reasonable hardness, which is notoriously difficult to approximate with simple JI or RTT methods.

2.9.11 subgroup

Demon

Demon is a temperament which equates 3 11/9 with 16/9, or equivalently 3 18/11 with 9/8, tempering out 1331/1296. This results in 11/9 being tuned flat to a supraminor third, and 27/22 being tuned sharp to a submajor third. It was discovered by CompactStar while searching for temperaments assosciated with the 7L 4s ("daemonotonic") MOS, known for its lack of representation of simple temperaments. The optimal tuning for demon temperament is near the basic tuning of 7L 4s (13\18), and indeed 18edo supports demon temperament.
