'''88-cent equal temperament''' ('''88cET''', also known as '''1ed88¢''' or '''APS88¢''') uses equal steps of 88 [[cent]]s each. It is equivalent to 13.6364edo, and is a subset of [[150edo]] (every eleventh step).

88-cent [[Equal-step tuning|equal temperament]] uses 88 cents, or 11\150 of an octave, to generate a [[nonoctave]] rank-1 scale. Since the 88-cent step is an excellent generator for the [[octacot]] temperament, it can be viewed as the generator chain of octacot, stripped of octaves. However viewed, octacot and 88-cent equal temperament are very closely related, and the chords of 88-cent equal temperament are listed on the page [[Chords of octacot]]. From this it may be seen that octacot, and hence 88 cent equal temperament , share an abundance of [[essentially tempered chord]]s.

Eight steps of 88 cents gives 704 cents, two cents sharp of 3/2, and eighteen gives 1584 cents, two cents flat of 5/2. Taken together this tells us that (5/2)<sup>4</sup>/(3/2)<sup>9</sup> = [[20000/19683]], the minimal diesis or tetracot comma, must be being tempered out. Eleven steps of 88 cents gives 968 cents, less than a cent flat of 7/4, and this tells us that (7/4)<sup>8</sup>/(3/2)<sup>11</sup> = 5764801/5668704 must be tempered out also. Taking this, multiplying it by the tetracot comma and taking the fourth root yields [[245/243]], which therefore must be tempered out also. The tetracot comma and 245/243 taken together define 7-limit octacot.

These would give an extended octacot, for which 88 cents would be an excellent generator tuning.

== The 88cET family ==
[[Gary Morrison]] originally conceived of 88-cent equal temperament as composed of steps of exactly 88¢. Nonetheless, composers have recognized a kinship between strict 88cET and some other scales – in particular, the 41ed8 (equivalent to taking three steps of [[41edo]] as a generator with no octaves), the 68ed32 (taking every 5 steps of [[68edo]]), the 109ed256 (taking every 8 steps of [[109edo]]), the 150ed2048 (taking every 11 steps of [[150edo]] i.e. the strict 88cET), the [[8edf]], and the 11ed7/4, the latter being a preferred variant of composer and software designer [[X. J. Scott]]. These cousins of strict 88cET have single steps of approximately 87.805¢, 88.235¢, 88.073¢, 88¢, 87.744¢, and 88.075¢, respectively. These small differences add up, as can be seen by examining the interval list below.

88-cent equal temperament (88cET, also known as 1ed88¢ or APS88¢) uses equal steps of 88 cents each. It is equivalent to 13.6364edo, and is a subset of 150edo (every eleventh step).

Theory

88-cent equal temperament uses 88 cents, or 11\150 of an octave, to generate a nonoctave rank-1 scale. Since the 88-cent step is an excellent generator for the octacot temperament, it can be viewed as the generator chain of octacot, stripped of octaves. However viewed, octacot and 88-cent equal temperament are very closely related, and the chords of 88-cent equal temperament are listed on the page Chords of octacot. From this it may be seen that octacot, and hence 88 cent equal temperament , share an abundance of essentially tempered chords.

Eight steps of 88 cents gives 704 cents, two cents sharp of 3/2, and eighteen gives 1584 cents, two cents flat of 5/2. Taken together this tells us that (5/2)4/(3/2)9 = 20000/19683, the minimal diesis or tetracot comma, must be being tempered out. Eleven steps of 88 cents gives 968 cents, less than a cent flat of 7/4, and this tells us that (7/4)8/(3/2)11 = 5764801/5668704 must be tempered out also. Taking this, multiplying it by the tetracot comma and taking the fourth root yields 245/243, which therefore must be tempered out also. The tetracot comma and 245/243 taken together define 7-limit octacot.

Continuing on, twenty steps of 88 cents gives 1760 cents, which we may compare to the 1751.3 cents of 11/4 and suggests 100/99 being tempered out, and four steps gives 352 cents, which may be compared to the 359.5 cents of 16/13, and suggests 325/324 being tempered out. These would give an extended octacot, for which 88 cents would be an excellent generator tuning.

The 88cET family

Gary Morrison originally conceived of 88-cent equal temperament as composed of steps of exactly 88¢. Nonetheless, composers have recognized a kinship between strict 88cET and some other scales – in particular, the 41ed8 (equivalent to taking three steps of 41edo as a generator with no octaves), the 68ed32 (taking every 5 steps of 68edo), the 109ed256 (taking every 8 steps of 109edo), the 150ed2048 (taking every 11 steps of 150edo i.e. the strict 88cET), the 8edf, and the 11ed7/4, the latter being a preferred variant of composer and software designer X. J. Scott. These cousins of strict 88cET have single steps of approximately 87.805¢, 88.235¢, 88.073¢, 88¢, 87.744¢, and 88.075¢, respectively. These small differences add up, as can be seen by examining the interval list below.
