124 equal divisions of the 8th harmonic (abbreviated 124ed8), is the tuning system that divides the 8th harmonic into 124 equal parts of about 29.03226 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of <math>8^{\frac{1}{124}}</math>, or the 124th root of 8.

124ed8 is an alternative version of [[143ed11]], the best 5.7.8.9.11.13.17.23 equal step tuning in the world. 124ed8 is for people who absolutely need a locked pure [[8/1]] when using some software or hardware. As a trade-off, 124ed8 has a slightly sharp tendency above the optimal [[143ed11]] 5.7.8.9.11.13.17.23 tuning. Comparared to [[143ed11]], 124ed8 stretches the 11th harmonic by about 0.295 ¢ and the mapping of the 8th harmonic (now pure) by about 0.256 ¢.
124ed8 is an alternative version of [[143ed11]], which is a strong 8.9.5.7.11.13.17.23 subgroup equal step tuning. 124ed8 is for people who absolutely need a locked pure [[8/1]] when using some software or hardware. As a trade-off, 124ed8 has a slightly sharp tendency above the optimal tuning for the subgroup. Comparared to [[143ed11]], 124ed8 stretches the 11th harmonic by about 0.295 ¢ and the mapping of the 8th harmonic (now pure) by about 0.256 ¢.
