29edo is notable for being the first equal division to have a more precise 3/2 than 12edo, and the first tuning to be consistent in the 15-odd-limit. 29th-octave temperaments occur naturally when temperament-merging edos whose greatest common divisor is 29.
Mystery (5-limit)
- Main article: Mystery and for higher-limit versions see Hemifamity temperaments #Mystery
The mystery temperament in the 5-limit is described by tempering out the comma [46 -29⟩, where a circle of 29 fifths closes on 17 octaves, and it is supported by small multiples of 29edo.

Copper
Copper temperament is derived from a 5-limit comma called copper comma, because it is constructed the same way towards 29edo as Kirnberger's atom is towards 12edo. A fifth of each of these tunings is modified by a tiny amount, then a circle of these fifths is set to close eventually at the octave.
It is worth noting that despite 29edo's fifth being closer to 3/2 than 12edo's, copper has a higher TE error than atomic and hence is not a very high accuracy temperament.
