8404edo is [[consistent]] to the [[13-odd-limit]], but both [[harmonic]]s [[5/1|5]] and [[13/1|13]] are about halfway between its steps. It is most interesting as every other step of the monstrous [[16808edo]], with the same extraordinary accuracy in the 2.3.25.7.11.17.23.31 subgroup.  
8404edo is [[consistent]] to the [[13-odd-limit]], but both [[harmonic]]s [[5/1|5]] and [[13/1|13]] are about halfway between its steps. It is perhaps more interesting as every other step of the monstrous [[16808edo]], with the same extraordinary accuracy in the 2.3.25.7.11.17.23.31 subgroup. Moreover, it can be used adaptively to mimic 16808edo by alternating the sharp and flat mappings of the inaccurate primes, if you believe the full 16808edo is not worth going the extra mile. [[8269edo]] and [[8539edo]] are similarly sized edos that legit approximate JI without this trick, though they do best in the [[23-limit]], not the [[31-limit]].  


Its [[3/2|perfect fifth]] ultimately comes from [[2101edo]].  
Like 16808edo, 8404edo's [[3/2|perfect fifth]] comes from [[2101edo]].
