56th-octave temperaments occur naturally through an edo join between any two equal divisions whose greatest common divisor is 56. Some of these are 224edo, a zeta edo, and 1848edo, an extremely precise 11-limit system.

56edo is also useful for fractional-octave augmentation because its step is close to the syntonic comma, 81/80. Hence considered below is barium.

Barium

One step of 56edo is close to a syntonic comma. Named after the 56th element, barium tempers out the barium comma ([-225 224 -56⟩), which sets 56 syntonic commas equal to the octave. It can be expressed as the 224 & 2072 temperament. 2072edo is the best tuning for the 13-limit, while 1848edo is useful if restricting to 11-limit is necessary.
