As 22 is divisible by 11, a 22edo instrument can play any music in 11edo, in the same way that [[12edo]] can play [[6edo]] (the whole tone scale). 11edo is interesting for sounding melodically very similar to 12edo (whole steps, half steps and minor thirds in the familiar 1:2:3 ratio), but harmonically very different, in particular because it lacks perfect fifths/fourths and 5-limit major thirds/minor sixths. Similarly, 22edo is melodically similar to [[24edo]] as both contain quarter-tones and minor, neutral, and major seconds; but 22edo offers much better all-around harmonies than 24. In [[Sagittal notation]], 11 can be notated as every other note of 22.

=== Stretched and compressed tunings ===
The [[The Riemann zeta function and tuning|local zeta peak]] around 22, '''80zpi''', is located at 22.025147, which has the octave [[Stretched and compressed tuning|compressed]] by 1.37{{c}}. The step size of [[APS|1ed54.5c]] differs from 22edo by only 0.05{{c}}. It improves the tuning of primes 3 and 7, but worsens that of primes 5 and 11, so it may be considered when treating 22edo as a tuning of [[archy]] (2.3.7 superpyth).

A score video demonstrating this type of notation using redefined sharp and flat symbols is available:  [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=se79rdp705Y ''Study #1 in Porcupine Temperament: "Flying Straight Down" (Microtonal/Xenharmonic)''] (2020) by [[John Moriarty]]. Note that the sharp of one note is lower than the flat of the next note, in contrast to sharps and flats in the diatonic notation with ups and downs described above.
