With [[3/1|harmonic 3]] less than a cent flat, [[5/1|harmonic 5]] a bit over three cents sharp and [[7/1|7]] | With [[3/1|harmonic 3]] less than a cent flat, [[5/1|harmonic 5]] a bit over three cents sharp and [[7/1|7]] less flat than that, 77edo represents an excellent tuning choice for both [[valentine]] (hence also [[Carlos Alpha]]), the {{nowrap|31 & 46}} temperament, and [[starling]], the [[rank-3 temperament]] [[tempering out]] [[126/125]], giving the [[optimal patent val]] for [[11-limit]] valentine and its [[13-limit]] extension [[valentino]], as well as 11-limit starling and [[oxpecker]] temperaments. For desirers of purer/more convincing harmonies of 19, it's also a great choice for [[nestoria]] (the extension of schismic to prime 19) so that ~16:19:24 can be heard to concord in isolation. It also gives the optimal patent val for [[grackle]] and various members of the [[unicorn family]], with a [[generator]] of 4\77 instead of the 5\77 (which gives valentine); it is a very good choice for full-subgroup [[unicorn]]. These are 7-limit [[unicorn family #Alicorn|alicorn]] and 11- and 13-limit [[unicorn family #Camahueto|camahueto]]. | ||
77et tempers out [[32805/32768 | 77et tempers out the [[schisma]] (32805/32768) in the [[5-limit]]; [[126/125]], [[1029/1024]], and [[6144/6125]] in the 7-limit; [[121/120]], [[176/175]], [[385/384]], and [[441/440]] in the 11-limit; and [[196/195]], [[351/350]], [[352/351]], [[676/675]] and [[729/728]] in the 13-limit. | ||
The [[17/1|17]] and [[19/1|19]] are tuned fairly well, making it [[consistent]] to the no-11 [[21-odd-limit]]. The equal temperament tempers out [[256/255]] in the 17-limit; and [[171/170]], [[361/360]], [[513/512]], and [[1216/1215]] in the 19-limit. | |||
It also does surprisingly well (for its size) in a large range of very high odd-limits (41 to 125 range). | |||

=== Subsets and supersets === | |||
Since 77 factors into primes as {{nowrap|7 × 11}}, 77edo contains [[7edo]] and [[11edo]] as subset edos. | |||

== Notation == | |||
=== Ups and downs notation === | |||
77edo can be notated using [[ups and downs notation|ups and downs]]. Trup is equivalent to quudsharp, trudsharp is equivalent to quup, etc. | |||
{{Sharpness-sharp7a}} | |||
Alternatively, sharps and flats with arrows borrowed from [[Helmholtz–Ellis notation]] can be used: | |||

← 76edo | 77edo | 78edo → |
77 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 77edo or 77ed2), also called 77-tone equal temperament (77tet) or 77 equal temperament (77et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 77 equal parts of about 15.6 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/77, or the 77th root of 2.
Theory
With harmonic 3 less than a cent flat, harmonic 5 a bit over three cents sharp and 7 less flat than that, 77edo represents an excellent tuning choice for both valentine (hence also Carlos Alpha), the 31 & 46 temperament, and starling, the rank-3 temperament tempering out 126/125, giving the optimal patent val for 11-limit valentine and its 13-limit extension valentino, as well as 11-limit starling and oxpecker temperaments. For desirers of purer/more convincing harmonies of 19, it's also a great choice for nestoria (the extension of schismic to prime 19) so that ~16:19:24 can be heard to concord in isolation. It also gives the optimal patent val for grackle and various members of the unicorn family, with a generator of 4\77 instead of the 5\77 (which gives valentine); it is a very good choice for full-subgroup unicorn. These are 7-limit alicorn and 11- and 13-limit camahueto.
77et tempers out the schisma (32805/32768) in the 5-limit; 126/125, 1029/1024, and 6144/6125 in the 7-limit; 121/120, 176/175, 385/384, and 441/440 in the 11-limit; and 196/195, 351/350, 352/351, 676/675 and 729/728 in the 13-limit.
The 17 and 19 are tuned fairly well, making it consistent to the no-11 21-odd-limit. The equal temperament tempers out 256/255 in the 17-limit; and 171/170, 361/360, 513/512, and 1216/1215 in the 19-limit.
It also does surprisingly well (for its size) in a large range of very high odd-limits (41 to 125 range).

Subsets and supersets
Since 77 factors into primes as 7 × 11, 77edo contains 7edo and 11edo as subset edos.
