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).
