→Intervals: sort intervals by odd limit. Not sure why some ratios are parenthesised, including certain rather important ones. I suppose I can make the inconsistent ones italic.

94edo is a remarkable all-around utility tuning system, good from low [[prime limit]] to very high prime limit situations. It is the first edo to be [[consistent]] through the [[23-odd-limit]], and no other edo is so consistent until [[282edo|282]] and [[311edo|311]] make their appearance.
94edo is a remarkable all-around utility tuning system, good from low [[prime limit]] to very high prime limit situations. It is the first edo to be [[consistent]] through the [[23-odd-limit]], and no other edo is so consistent until [[282edo|282]] and [[311edo|311]] make their appearance.


94edo can be thought of as two sets of [[47edo]] offset by one step of 94edo. It inherits from 47edo's good approximations of primes 5, 7, 13 and 17, while it dramatically improves on prime 3, as well as primes 11, 19 and 23 to a lesser degree. It can also be thought of as the "sum" of [[41edo]] and [[53edo]] (41 + 53 = 94), both of which are known for their approximation of [[Pythagorean tuning]]. Therefore 94edo's fifth is the [[mediant]] of these two tunings' fifths; it is slightly sharp of just and less accurate than 53edo's fifth, but more accurate than 41edo's.
Its step size is close to that of [[144/143]], which is consistently represented in this tuning system.


The list of 23-limit commas it tempers out is huge, but it is worth noting that it tempers out [[32805/32768]] and is thus a [[schismatic]] system, that it tempers out [[225/224]] and [[385/384]] and so is a [[marvel]] system, and that it also tempers out [[3125/3087]], [[4000/3969]], [[5120/5103]] and [[540/539]]. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for the rank-5 temperament tempering out [[275/273]], and for a number of other temperaments, such as [[isis]].
=== As a tuning of other temperaments ===
94edo can also be thought of as the "sum" of [[41edo]] and [[53edo]] {{nowrap|(41 + 53 {{=}} 94)}}, both of which are not only known for their approximation of [[Pythagorean tuning]], but also support a variety of [[Schismatic family|schismatic temperament]] known as [[Schismatic family#Cassandra|cassandra]] (which is itself a variety of [[Schismatic family#Garibaldi|garibaldi]]), tempering out [[32805/32768]], [[225/224]], and [[385/384]]. Therefore, 94edo's fifth is the [[mediant]] of these two edos' fifths; it is slightly sharp of just and less accurate than 53edo's fifth, but more accurate than 41edo's, and acts as a generator for a highly optimized and high-prime-limit form of cassandra. Few, if any, edos that support schismatic by [[Val|patent val]] have at least as high of a consistency limit as 94edo while also having a fifth that can stack to reach any interval in it.
 
The list of 23-limit commas it tempers out is huge, and in lower prime limits, it also tempers out [[3125/3087]], [[4000/3969]], [[5120/5103]] and [[540/539]]. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for gassormic, the rank-5 temperament tempering out [[275/273]] (despite one edostep being very close in size to this comma), and for a number of other temperaments, such as [[isis]].


94edo is an excellent edo for [[Carlos Beta]] scale, since the difference between 1 step of Carlos Beta and 5 steps of 94edo is only 0.00314534 cents.

Since 94 factors into primes as {{nowrap| 2 × 47 }}, 94edo contains [[2edo]] and [[47edo]] as subset edos. It can be thought of as two sets of 47edo offset by one step of 94edo. It inherits from 47edo's good approximations of primes 5, 7, 13, and 17, while dramatically improving on prime 3, as well as primes 11, 19, and 23 to a lesser degree.

Assuming [[23-limit]] [[patent val]] {{val| 94 149 218 264 325 348 384 399 425 }}, here is a table of intervals as approximated by [[94edo]] steps, and their corresponding 13-limit well-ordered extended diatonic interval names. 'S/s' indicates alteration by the septimal comma, [[64/63]]; 'K/k' indicates alteration by the syntonic comma, [[81/80]]; 'U/u' by the undecimal quartertone, [[33/32]]; 'L/l' by pentacircle comma, [[896/891]]; 'O/o' by [[45/44]]; 'R/r' by the rastma, [[243/242]]; 'T/t' by the tridecimal quartertone, [[1053/1024]]; and finally, 'H/h', by [[40/39]]. Capital letters alter downward, lowercase alter upwards. Important 13-limit intervals approximated that are not associated with the extended diatonic interval names are added in brackets. Multiple alterations by 'K' down from augmented and major, or up from diminished and minor intervals are also added in brackets, along with their associated (5-limit) intervals.

There are perhaps nine functional minor thirds varying between 242.553 cents and 344.681 cents, and one can even go beyond those boundaries under the right conditions, so musicians playing in 94edo have a lot more flexibility in terms of the particular interval shadings they might use depending on context.
There are perhaps nine functional minor thirds varying between 242.553 cents and 344.681 cents, and one can even go beyond those boundaries under the right conditions, so musicians playing in 94edo have a lot more flexibility in terms of the particular interval shadings they might use depending on context.


The perfect fifth has three, or perhaps even five, functional options, each differing by one step. Although in most timbres only the central perfect fifth at 702.128 cents sounds consonant and stable, the lower and higher variants provide a change in interval quality, and can be helpful in creating subsets which mimic other edos, and close the circle of fifths in different numbers of pitches. For example, a close approximation to 41edo can be made using a chain of forty 702.128 cent fifths and one wide fifth at 714.894 cents, with an improvement on the tuning of most simple consonances in close keys, but a 1-step variation in interval quality as one modulates to more distant keys.

Every odd-numbered interval can generate the entire tuning of 94edo except for the 600-cent [[tritone]] (47\94), which divides the octave exactly in half.

Line 792: Line 901:


While having the whole gamut of 94 intervals available on a keyboard or other instrument would be quite a feat, one can get a lot out of a 41-tone chain of fifths (with the odd fifth one degree wide) or a 53-tone chain of fifths (with the odd fifth one degree narrow), where the subset behaves much like a well-temperament, arguably usable in all keys but with some interval size variation between closer and more distant keys.

== Notation ==
94edo can be notated in [[Sagittal notation|Sagittal]] using the [[Sagittal_notation#Athenian_extension_single-shaft|Athenian extension]], with the apotome equating to 9 edosteps and the limma to 7 edosteps.
