342edo is a very strong 11-limit system. It is, as one would expect, [[consistency|distinctly consistent]] through the [[11-odd-limit]], but goes no higher; nonetheless, it is a [[zeta peak edo]]. A [[comma basis|basis]] for the 11-limit [[comma]]s consists of [[2401/2400]], [[3025/3024]], [[4375/4374]] and [[32805/32768]]. It is the [[optimal patent val]] for 11-limit [[Breedsmic temperaments #Hemitert|hemitert]] temperament, and [[support]]s hemiennealimmal. | 342edo is a very strong 11-limit system.

If 3.5 cents is taken as the [[just-noticeable difference]], then 342edo may be regarded as the highest EDO whose step size remains individually discernible. However, the [[JND]] is not fixed and depends on the listener and musical context. | |||
