In higher limits, it is not as impressive, with only [[53/32]] being 17% off and 2.3.5.67.71 subgroup having less than 4% error.

3072edo's step is known as '''Octamu''' (eighth MIDI-resolution unit, 8mu, 2<sup>8</sup> = 256 equal divisions of the [[12edo]] semitone). The internal data structure of the 8mu requires two bytes, with the first bits of each byte reserved as a flags to indicate the byte's status as data, and one bit in the first byte to indicate the sign (+ or &minus;) showing the direction of the pitch-bend up or down, and 5 other bits which are not used. The first data byte transmitted is the Least Significant Byte (LSB), equivalent to a fine-tuning. The second data byte transmitted is the Most Significant Byte (MSB), equivalent to a coarse-tuning.

Theory

3072edo is consistent to the 11-odd-limit and it is an extremely accurate 5-limit tuning, tempering out [37 25 -33 (whoosh) and [161 -84 -12 (atom) in the 5-limit; 250047/250000 (landscape comma), [-2 -25 1 14, and [-53 -1 9 12; in the 7-limit; 9801/9800, 151263/151250, 184549376/184528125, and 73525096183/73466403840 in the 11-limit.

Although consistent to the 11-odd-limit, it makes more sense to actually see 3072edo as a 2.3.5.7.13 subgroup tuning, due to lower relative error. There it tempers out 140625/140608 and 1990656/1990625. Overall in the 13-limit, the patent val still has smaller errors than any other val despite incosistency. In higher limits, it is not as impressive, with only 53/32 being 17% off and 2.3.5.67.71 subgroup having less than 4% error.

As a tuning standard

3072edo's step is known as octamu (eighth MIDI-resolution unit, 8mu, 28 = 256 equal divisions of the 12edo semitone). The internal data structure of the 8mu requires two bytes, with the first bits of each byte reserved as flags to indicate the byte's status as data, and one bit in the first byte to indicate the sign (+ or −) showing the direction of the pitch-bend up or down, and 5 other bits which are not used. The first data byte transmitted is the Least Significant Byte (LSB), equivalent to a fine-tuning. The second data byte transmitted is the Most Significant Byte (MSB), equivalent to a coarse-tuning.
