Each step of 72edo is called a ''[[morion]]'' (plural ''moria)''. This produces a twelfth-tone tuning, with the whole tone measuring 200 cents, the same as in [[12edo]]. 72edo is also a superset of [[24edo]], a common and standard tuning of [[Arabic, Turkish, Persian music|Arabic music]], and has itself been used to tune Turkish music.

Composers that used 72edo include [[Ivan Wyschnegradsky]], [[Julián Carrillo]] (who is better associated with [[96edo]]), [[Ezra Sims]], [[James Tenney]], [[Georg Friedrich Haas]] and the jazz musician [[Joe Maneri]].

72edo approximates [[11-limit]] [[just intonation]] exceptionally well, is [[consistent]] in the [[17-odd-limit]], is the first [[Trivial temperament|non-trivial]] EDO to be consistent in the 12- and 13-[[Odd prime sum limit|odd-prime-sum-limit]], and is the ninth [[The Riemann zeta function and tuning #Zeta EDO lists|zeta integral tuning]]. The octave, fifth and fourth are the same size as they would be in 12edo, 72, 42 and 30 steps respectively, but the classic major third ([[5/4]]) measures 23 steps, not 24, and other [[5-limit]] major intervals are one step flat of 12edo while minor ones are one step sharp. The septimal minor seventh ([[7/4]]) is 58 steps, while the undecimal semiaugmented fourth ([[11/8]]) is 33.
72edo approximates [[11-limit]] [[just intonation]] exceptionally well. It is [[consistent]] in the [[17-odd-limit]] and is the ninth [[zeta integral edo]]. It is the second edo (after [[58edo|58]]) to be [[consistency|distinctly consistent]] in the [[11-odd-limit]], the first edo to be [[consistency|consistent to distance 2]] in the 11-odd-limit, and the first edo to be consistent in the 12- and 13-[[odd prime sum limit|odd-prime-sum-limit]].  


72edo is an excellent tuning for the [[miracle]] temperament, especially the 11-limit version, and the related rank-3 temperament [[prodigy]], and is a good tuning for other temperaments and scales, including [[wizard]], [[harry]], [[catakleismic]], [[compton]], [[unidec]] and [[tritikleismic]].

The septimal minor seventh ([[7/4]]) is 58 steps, while the undecimal semiaugmented fourth ([[11/8]]) is 33.
 
72et is the only 11-limit regular temperament which treats harmonics 24 to 28 as being equidistant in pitch, splits [[25/24]] into two equal [[49/48]][[~]][[50/49]]'s, and splits [[28/27]] into two equal [[55/54]]~[[56/55]]'s. It is also an excellent tuning for [[miracle]] temperament, especially the 11-limit version, and the related rank-3 temperament [[prodigy]], and is a good tuning for other temperaments and scales, including [[wizard]], [[harry]], [[catakleismic]], [[compton]], [[unidec]] and [[tritikleismic]].


The 13th harmonic (octave reduced) is so closely mapped on [[acoustic phi]] that 72edo could be treated as a 2.3.5.7.11.ϕ.17 temperament.

=== Octave stretch ===
72edo's approximations of harmonics 3, 5, 7, 11, 13 and 17 can all be improved by slightly [[stretched and compressed tuning|stretching the octave]], using tunings such as [[114edt]] or [[186ed6]]. 114edt is quite hard and might be best for the 13- or 17-limit specifically. 186ed6 is milder and less disruptive, suitable for 11-limit and/or full 19-limit harmonies.


=== Subsets and supersets ===
=== Subsets and supersets ===
Since 72 factors into 2<sup>3</sup> × 3<sup>2</sup>, 72edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, and 36 }}. [[144edo]], which doubles it, provides a possible correction to its approximate harmonic 13.

All 72edo chords can be named using ups and downs. An up, down or mid after the chord root affects the 3rd, 6th, 7th, and/or the 11th (every other note of a stacked-3rds chord 6-1-3-5-7-9-11-13). Alterations are always enclosed in parentheses, additions never are. Here are the zo, gu, ilo, yo and ru triads:

In 72tet, there are 6 [[Ring number|rings]]. 12edo is the plain ring; thus every 6 degrees is the 3-limit.

Then, after each subsequent degree in reverse, a new prime limit is unveiled from it:
Then, after each subsequent degree in reverse, a new prime limit is unveiled from it:
* -1 degree (the down ring) corrects 81/64 to 5/4 via 80/81
* −1 degree (the down ring) corrects 81/64 to 5/4 via 80/81
* -2 degrees (the dud ring) corrects 16/9 to 7/4 via 63/64

Thus the product of a ratio's monzo with (0 0 -1 -2 3 2 0 0), modulo 6, specifies which ring the ratio lies on.
Thus the product of a ratio's monzo with {{map| 0 0 -1 -2 3 2 0 0 }}, modulo 6, specifies which ring the ratio lies on.


== Notations ==
== Notations ==
=== Sagittal ===
=== Ups and downs notation ===
72edo can be notated with ups and downs, spoken as up, dup, trup, dudsharp, downsharp, sharp, upsharp etc. and down, dud, trud, dupflat etc.
{{Sharpness-sharp6a}}
 
Half-sharps and half-flats can be used to avoid triple arrows:
{{Sharpness-sharp6b}}
 
[[Alternative symbols for ups and downs notation#Sharp-6| Alternative ups and downs]] have sharps and flats with arrows borrowed from extended [[Helmholtz–Ellis notation]]:
{{Sharpness-sharp6}}
 
If double arrows are not desirable, arrows can be attached to quarter-tone accidentals:
{{Sharpness-sharp6-qt}}
 
=== Sagittal notation ===
This notation uses the same sagittal sequence as EDOs [[65edo#Sagittal notation|65-EDO]] and [[79edo#Sagittal notation|79]], and is a superset of the notations for EDOs [[36edo#Sagittal notation|36]], [[24edo#Sagittal notation|24]], [[18edo#Sagittal notation|18]], [[12edo#Sagittal notation|12]], [[8edo#Sagittal notation|8]], and [[6edo#Sagittal notation|6]].

=== Ups and downs ===
=== Ivan Wyschnegradsky's notation ===
Using [[Helmholtz-Ellis notation|Helmholtz&ndash;Ellis]] accidentals, 72edo can also be notated using [[ups and downs notation]]:
{{Sharpness-sharp6-iw|72}}
{{Sharpness-sharp6|72}}


In some cases, certain notes may be best notated using semi- and sesquisharps and flats with arrows:

== Instruments ==
If one can get six 12edo instruments tuned a twelfth-tone apart, it is possible to use these instruments in combination to play the full gamut of 72edo (see Music).
One can also use a skip fretting system:
* [[Skip fretting system 72 2 27]]
Alternatively, an appropriately mapped keyboard of sufficient size is usable for playing 72edo:
* [[Lumatone mapping for 72edo]]
