As the double of [[4edt|4edt]], harmonically, it is analogous to 10edo in that the harmonic chain is doubled. However, doing so does not make it a schismatic<!--?!--> temperament like 10edo, because the full 3:5:7 triad is already present in 4edt. In any case, as a multiple of 4edt, I will say it is the widest variety of "Black-Extraterrestrial-Tree" temperament.
== Theory ==
As the double of [[4edt]], it is the analog of [[10edo]] being the double of [[5edo]]. However, the full 3:5:7 triad is already present in 4edt which is unlike the situation in 10edo where 4:5:6 gains a new better approximation than the sus4 triad in [[5edo]]. More precisely, 8edt is [[enfactoring|enfactored]] in the 3.5.7 subgroup.


What it does introduce are flat pseudooctaves and sharp 3:2's, making it related to 5edo melodically.
What it does introduce are flat [[2/1]] pseudo-octaves and sharp [[3/2]] perfect fifths, making it related to 5edo melodically. It is equivalent to 5edo with the [[3/1]] made just, by compressing the octave by 11.3 cents, which has the side effect of bringing the step size slightly closer to [[8/7]].
