293edo does not approximate [[prime harmonic]]s well all the way into the 41st, with none approximated within 30% error. The first harmonic that it approximates well is the 43rd, which is 10% flat compared to the just intonated interval. As such, it is only [[consistent]] to the [[5-odd-limit]].
293edo is only [[consistent]] to the [[5-odd-limit]] and it does not approximate [[prime harmonic]]s well all the way into the 41st, with none approximated within 20% [[relative interval error|relative error]], and all primes besides 13 have over 30% error. The first harmonic that it approximates well is the 43rd, which is 10% flat compared to the just intonated interval.


Using the [[patent val]], the equal temperament [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[parakleisma]] and {{monzo| -40 15 7 }}. It also tempers out the [[marvel comma]] in the 7-limit.  
Nonetheless, a number of mappings can be considered.  


The 293bb val, with 170\293 fifth, is a good tuning for the meantone temperament.  
Using the [[patent val]], {{val|293 464 680 823}}, 293edo [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[parakleisma]] and {{monzo| -40 15 7 }} in the 5-limit and the [[marvel comma]] in the 7-limit. The 293bb val, with {{val|293 '''463''' 680 823}}, is a tuning close to the [[POTE]] tuning for the [[meantone]] temperament. 293bcd, {{val|293 '''465 681 822'''}} is a tuning for [[quartonic]].  


When it comes to the intervals that are not octave-reduced prime harmonics, some which are well-approximated are [[6/5]], [[11/7]], [[17/11]], [[19/17]], [[24/23]], [[25/17]], [[25/19]], and respectively their octave inversions. [[21/16]], which is a composite octave-reduced harmonic, is also well represented. These numbers are related to poor approximation of prime harmonics by cancelling out of the errors. For example, 19th and 17th harmonics have +36 and +37 error respectively, which together cancels out to 1.
In the 11-limit, 293de val, {{val|293 464​ 680 ​'''822​ 1013'''​}} provides a tuning close to the [[POTE]] tuning for [[hemiseven]], and and in the 13-limit, 293ef val {{val|293 464​ 680 823​ '''1013 1085'''​}} tunes [[merman]].


One step of 293edo is at the edge of human pitch perception of 3.5 cents. When combined with low harmonicity, this opens 293edo to a wide range of interpretations. For example, 293edo also can be interpreted as a dual-interval tuning, with ''two notes'' instead of one assigned to a particular interval.
293edo nonetheless has good approximations to [[6/5]], [[11/7]], [[17/11]], [[19/17]], [[24/23]], [[25/17]], [[25/19]], and respectively their octave inversions. [[21/16]], which is a composite octave-reduced harmonic, is also well represented.

{{Main|Symmetry454}}
 
In the 17-limit, although inconsistent, 293edo in the patent val is a tuning for the [[Symmetry454]] temperament which is described as the 52 & 293 temperament, and constructed from a 52-tone maximal evenness scale which is exactly the distribution of leap years in the 293-year cycle of {{W|Symmetry454}}, the calendar with the same name. 62\293, mapped to [[52/45]], is the generator. See the dedicated page.

293edo tempers out the 2.43 {{monzo| 1590 293 }} comma in the [[patent val]], equating a stack of 293 43rd harmonics with 1590 octaves.
Using the patent val, it tempers out 225/224, 2500000/2470629, and 344373768/341796875 in the 7-limit; 6250/6237, 8019/8000, 14700/14641, and 16896/16807 in the 11-limit; 351/350, 625/624, 1625/1617, and 13122/13013 in the 13-limit; 715/714, 850/847, 1089/1088, 1377/1375, 2058/2057, and 2880/2873 in the 17-limit.

The 33L 19s [[Maximal evenness|maximally even]] scale of 293edo is a leap year pattern of a proposed calendar. It employs 62\293 as a generator, described as "accumulator" by the creator of the calendar himself. Likewise, a 71-note cycle with 260\293 generator can be constructed by analogy.


The corresponding rank two temperament is therefore called [[Symmetry454]].
