26edo tempers out [[81/80]] in the [[5-limit]], making it a [[meantone]] tuning with a very flat fifth.  
26edo has a [[3/2|perfect fifth]] of about 692 cents and [[tempering out|tempers out]] [[81/80]] in the [[5-limit]], making it a very flat [[meantone]] tuning (0.088957{{c}} flat of the [[4/9-comma meantone]] fifth) with a very soft [[5L 2s|diatonic scale]].  


In the [[7-limit]], it tempers out 50/49, 525/512 and 875/864, and [[support]]s temperaments like [[injera]], [[flattone]], [[lemba]] and [[doublewide]]. It really comes into its own as a higher-limit temperament, being the smallest equal division which represents the [[13-odd-limit]] [[consistent]]ly. 26edo has a very good approximation of the harmonic seventh ([[7/4]]), as it is the denominator of a convergent to log<sub>2</sub>7.

26edo's minor sixth (1.6158) is very close to ''φ'' ≈ 1.6180 (i.e. the golden ratio).
26edo's minor sixth (1.6158) is very close to {{nowrap|''φ'' ≈ 1.6180}} (i.e. the golden ratio).


With a fifth of 15 steps, it can be equally divided into 3 or 5, supporting [[slendric]] temperament and [[bleu]] temperament respectively.

# In terms of more traditional chord types we have flattone, a variant of meantone with flat fifths, which yields interesting but to some unsatisfying results (due mainly to the dissonance of its thirds, and its major second of approximately [[10/9]] instead of [[9/8]]).
# In terms of more traditional chord types we have flattone, a variant of meantone with flat fifths, which provides an interesting structure but unsatisfying intonation due mainly to the poorly tuned thirds. Extending meantone harmony to the 7-limit is quite intuitive; for example, augmented becomes supermajor, and diminished becomes subminor. Simple mappings for harmonics up to 13 are also achieved.
# As two chains of meantone fifths half an octave apart, it supports injera temperament. The generator for this is an interval which can be called either 21/20 or 15/14, and which represents two steps of 26, and hence one step of 13. Hence in 26edo (as opposed to, for instance, [[38edo]]) it can be viewed as two parallel 13edo scales, and from that point of view we can consider it as supporting the 13b&amp;26 temperament, allowing the two chains be shifted slightly and which can be used for more atonal melodies. In this way its internal dynamics resemble those of [[14edo]].

# 26edo nearly perfectly approximates the 7th and 11th harmonics, and an entire system may be constructed analogous to that based on the 3rd and 5th harmonics. In terms of subgroups, this is the 2.7.11 subgroup, and on this 26 tempers out the pair of commas [[65536/65219]] and {{monzo| -3 0 0 6 -4 }}. The 65536/65219 comma, the orgonisma, leads to the [[Orgonia|orgone temperament]] with an approximate 77/64 generator of 7\26, with mos scales of size 7, 11 and 15. The {{monzo| -3 0 0 6 -4 }} comma leads to a half-octave period and an approximate [[49/44]] generator of 4\26, leading to mos of size 8 and 14.

# It also has a pretty good 17th harmonic and tempers out the comma 459:448, thus three fifths gives a 17:14 and four gives a 21:17; "mushtone". Mushtone is high in badness, but 26edo does it pretty well (and [[33edo]] even better). Because 26edo also tempers out 85:84, the septendecimal major and minor thirds are equivalent to their pental counterparts, making mushtone the same as flattone.

Its step, as well as the octave-inverted and octave-equivalent versions of it, holds the distinction for having around the highest [[harmonic entropy]] possible and thus is, in theory, most dissonant, assuming the relatively common values of ''a'' = 2 and ''s'' = 1.01. This property is shared with all edos between around 20 and 30. Intervals smaller than this tend to be perceived as unison and are more consonant as a result; intervals larger than this have less "tension" and thus are also more consonant.
Its step of 46.2{{c}}, as well as the octave-inverted and octave-equivalent versions of it, holds the distinction for having around the highest [[harmonic entropy]] possible. In other words, there is a common perception of quartertones as being the most dissonant intervals. This property is shared with all edos between around 20 and 30. Intervals smaller than this tend to be perceived as unison and are more consonant as a result; intervals larger than this have less "tension" and thus are also more consonant.
 
Thanks to its sevenths, 26edo is an ideal tuning for its size for [[metallic harmony]].

26edo has [[2edo]] and [[13edo]] as subsets, of which 13edo is non-trivial, sharing harmonics 5 and 9 through 23 (including direct approximations) with 26edo. Multiplying 26edo by 3 yields [[78edo]], which corrects several harmonics.

After [[13edo #Approximation to irrational intervals|13edo]], the weird coïncidences continue: [[11/7 #Proximity with π/2|acoustic π/2]] (17\26) is just in between the ϕ intervals provided by 13edo (16\26 for [[Logarithmic phi|logarithmic ϕ]]/2, and 18\26 for [[Acoustic phi|acoustic ϕ]]).
26edo approximates both [[acoustic phi]] (the [[golden ratio]]) and [[pi]] quite accurately. Not until 1076edo do we find a better edo in terms of relative error on these intervals.
 
Not until 1076edo do we find a better edo in terms of relative error on these intervals (which is not a very relevant edo for logarithmic ϕ, since 1076 does not belong to the Fibonacci sequence).
 
However, it should be noted that [[User:Contribution/Logarithmic constants VS acoustic constants (opinion piece article)|from an acoustic perspective]], acoustic π and acoustic ϕ are both better represented on [[23edo]].

[[Gamelismic_clan#Unidec-Hendec|Hendec]], the 13-limit 26&amp;46 temperament with generator ~10/9, concentrates the intervals of greatest accuracy in 26et into the lower ranges of complexity. It has a period of half an octave, with 13/12 reachable by four generators, 8/7 by two, 14/11 by one, 10/9 by one, and 11/8 by three. All of these are tuned to within 2.5 cents of accuracy.
