* Step size: 33.426{{c}}, octave size: 1203.351{{c}}

Stretching the octave of 36edo by a little over 3{{c}} results in improved primes 5, 11, and 13, but worse primes 2, 3, and 7. This approximates all harmonics up to 16 within 13.4{{c}}. The tuning 21edf does this.

; [[57edt]]

* Step size: 33.368{{c}}, octave size: 1201.235{{c}}

If one intends to use both 36edo's vals for 5/1 at once, stretching the octave of 36edo by about 1{{c}} optimises 36edo for that dual-5 usage, while also making slight improvements to primes 3, 7, 11, and 13. This approximates all harmonics up to 16 within 16.6{{c}}. Several almost-identical tunings do this: 57edt, [[93ed6]], [[101ed7]], [[zpi|155zpi]], and the 2.3.7.13-subgroup [[TE]] and [[WE]] tunings of 36et.

* Step size: 33.304{{c}}, octave size: 1198.929{{c}}

Compressing the octave of 36edo by about 2{{c}} results in much improved primes 5 and 11, but much worse primes 7 and 13. This approximates all harmonics up to 16 within 11.6{{c}}. The 11- and 13-limit TE tunings of 36et both do this, as do their respective WE tunings.
