Meantone temperament is a musical temperament, which is a system of musical tuning. In general, a meantone is constructed the same way as Pythagorean tuning, as a stack of perfect fifths, but in a meantone, each fifth (except for the wolf fifth) is narrowed by the same amount relative to its width in Just Intonation. The meantone temperament generates all non-octave intervals from a stack of tempered perfect fifths; and by choosing an appropriate size for the perfect fifths, tempers the syntonic comma to unison. Quarter-comma meantone is the best known type of meantone temperament, and the term meantone temperament is often used to refer to it specifically.
