~~420~~ is ~~a highly composite number~~, ~~being divisible by all numbers inclusively from 2 to 7. It'~~s ~~other divisors are {{EDOs~~| 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 28, ~~30, 35, 42, 60, 70, 84, 105, 140~~, and ~~210 }}~~.

420edo is [[enfactoring|enfactored]] in the 7-limit, with the same tuning of [[harmonic]]s [[3/1|3]], [[5/1|5]], and [[7/1|7]] as [[140edo]]. The [[13/1|13th harmonic]] is also present in 140edo, and ultimately derives from [[10edo]]. The [[29/1|29th harmonic]], while having significantly drifted in terms of [[relative interval error]], has retained its step position from [[7edo]]. In addition, in the 29-limit, only the harmonics 11 and 17 have step numbers coprime with 420. This means that all other approximations are preserved from smaller edos, thus enabling edo mergers and mashups.

~~Remarkably~~, ~~approximation to~~ the ~~third harmonic (perfect fifth plus an octave~~, ~~or tritave) constitutes 666 steps of 420edo~~. ~~Nice~~.

420edo is good at the 2.5.7.11.13.19.23 [[subgroup]], and has a great potential as a near-just xenharmonic system. It also works satisfactorily with the 29-limit as a whole, though in[[consistent]]. In the 11-limit, it notably tempers out [[4000/3993]], and in the 13-limit, [[10648/10647]].

~~Being a highly composite number of steps, 420edo is rich~~ in modulation circles. In addition, of the first 10 prime harmonics, only 11 and 17 have step correspondences coprime with 420. This means that all other approximations are preserved from smaller edos, thus enabling EDO mergers and mashups, and showing the vibrant and highly composite nature of 420.

420 is a largely composite number, its nontrivial subset edos being {{EDOs| 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 28, 30, 35, 42, 60, 70, 84, 105, 140, and 210 }}. For this reason 420edo is rich in modulation circles.
