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.

It is the [[optimal patent val]] for 11-limit [[Breedsmic temperaments #Hemitert|hemitert]] temperament, and [[support]]s hemiennealimmal.
 
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.

* 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.
