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.
The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.<br>
 
<h4>Original Wikitext content:</h4>
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.

{{Harmonics in equal|342|columns=11}}
 
=== Subset and supersets ===
342 factors as {{factorization|342}}, with subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 19, 38, 57, 114, and 171 }}.
 
[[684edo]], which doubles 342edo, provides an approximation of harmonic 13 that works well with the flat tendency of its 11-limit mapping.

* 342et is lower in relative error than any previous equal temperaments in the 11-limit, being the first to beat [[270edo|270]]. Not until [[612edo|612]] do we find a better equal temperament in terms of absolute error, and not until [[1848edo|1848]] do we find one in terms of relative error.
