Template:EDO intro

126edo has a distinctly sharp tendency, with the 3, 5, 7 and 11 all sharp. The equal temperament tempers out 2048/2025 in the 5-limit, 2401/2400 and 4375/4374 in the 7-limit, and 176/175, 896/891, and 1331/1323 in the 11-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for 7- and 11-limit srutal temperament. It also creates an excellent Porcupine[8] scale, mapping the large quills to 17 steps, and the small to 7, which is the precise amount of tempering needed to make the thirds and fourths equally consonant within a few fractions of a cent.
