420edo is [[enfactoring|enfactored]] in the 7-limit, with the same tuning of [[harmonic]]s [[3/1|3]], [[5/1|5]], and [[7/1|7]] as [[140edo]]. The [[13/1|13th harmonic]] is also present in 140edo, and ultimately derives from [[10edo]]. The [[29/1|29th harmonic]], while having significantly drifted in terms of [[relative interval error]], has retained its step position from [[7edo]]. In addition, in the 29-limit, only the harmonics 11 and 17 have step numbers coprime with 420. This means that all other approximations are preserved from smaller edos, thus enabling edo mergers and mashups. | 420edo is [[enfactoring|enfactored]] in the 7-limit, with the same tuning of [[harmonic]]s [[3/1|3]], [[5/1|5]], and [[7/1|7]] as [[140edo]].

420edo is good at the 2.5.7.11.13.19.23 [[subgroup]], and has a great potential as a near-just xenharmonic system. In the 2.7.11.19 subgroup, it supports the [[30th-octave | 420edo is good at the 2.5.7.11.13.19.23 [[subgroup]], and has a great potential as a near-just xenharmonic system. In the 2.7.11.19 subgroup, it supports the [[30th-octave temperaments#Oyster|oyster]] temperament. It also works satisfactorily with the 29-limit as a whole, though in[[consistent]]. In the 11-limit, it notably tempers out [[4000/3993]], and in the 13-limit, [[10648/10647]]. | ||
