An octave is equal to <math>\frac{1}{\~~log~~{2}{\frac{81}{80}}} \approx 55.79763</math> syntonic commas, which when rounded to the closest integer yields 56. The associated comma in the 5-limit is {{monzo|-225 224 -56}}, and therefore is tempered if and only if the EDO divides 56. The comma is about 4 cents wide, but since each 81/80 is flattened by only about 0.07 cents as a consequence, barium is a very precise microtemperament.

Because the period is set to 81/80, interval stacking scheme works the same way as in [[meantone]], with the only difference being that the resulting intervals are represented in different 56ths of the octave. When the interval 3/2 is stacked 4 times, it also mirrors the pattern in every 1/56th of the octave, reaching [[5/4]] in 4 steps just as meantone would.
