256edo is enfactored in the 5-limit with the same tuning as 128edo, and the error of harmonic 7 leads to inconsistency, which is likely one of the reasons this edo attracts little interest. To start with, consider the sharp-tending 256c val ⟨256 406 595 719 886], which tempers out 2401/2400, 3388/3375, 5120/5103, so that it supports 7-limit hemififths and 11-limit semihemi. The patent val ⟨256 406 594 719 886] tempers out 540/539, 2200/2187, 4000/3969, 12005/11979, among others. It is best tuned in the 2.3.7.11 subgroup, in which it is consistent to the 11-odd-limit minus intervals involving 5.
In the higher limits, it approximates harmonics 23, 43, and 47 quite accurately.
