The 126 equal temperament divides the octave into 126 equal parts of 9.524 cents each. It has a distinctly sharp tendency, with the 3, 5, 7 and 11 all sharp. It tempers out 2048/2025 in the 5-limit, 2401/2400 and 4375/4374 in the 7-limit, and 176/175, 1331/1323 and 896/891 in the 11-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for 7- and 11-limit [[Diaschismic_family#Srutal-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 3rds and 4ths equally consonant within a few fractions of a cent. It has divisors 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 14, 18, 21, 42, and 63.

126edo has a distinctly sharp tendency, with the [[3/1|3]], [[5/1|5]], [[7/1|7]] and [[11/1|11]] all sharp. The equal temperament [[tempering out|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 generators to 17 steps, and the smaller interval 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.

Since 126 factors into {{factorization|126}}, 126edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 14, 18, 21, 42, and 63 }}.
