28edo, a multiple of both [[7edo]] and [[14edo]] (and of course [[2edo]] and [[4edo]]), has a step size of 42.857 [[cent]]s. It shares three intervals with [[12edo]]: the 300 cent minor third, the 600 cent tritone, and the 900 cent major sixth. Thus it [[tempering_out|tempers out]] the [[greater diesis]] [[648/625|648:625]]. It does not however temper out the [[128/125|128:125]] [[lesser_diesis|lesser diesis]], as its major third is less than 1 cent flat (and its inversion the minor sixth less than 1 cent sharp). It has the same perfect fourth and fifth as 7edo. It also has decent approximations of several septimal intervals, of which [[9/7]] and its inversion [[14/9]] are also found in 14edo.

It has the same perfect fourth and fifth as 7edo. It also has decent approximations of several septimal intervals, of which [[9/7]] and its inversion [[14/9]] are also found in 14edo. Its approximation to [[5/4]] is unusually good for an edo of this size, being the next convergent to log<sub>2</sub>5 after [[3edo]].


28edo can approximate the [[7-limit|7-limit]] subgroup 2.27.5.21 quite well, and on this subgroup it has the same commas and tunings as 84edo. The temperament corresponding to [[Semicomma_family|orwell temperament]] now has a major third as generator, though as before 225/224, 1728/1715 and 6144/6125 are tempered out. The 225/224-tempered version of the [[augmented_triad|augmented triad]] has a very low complexity, so many of them appear in the [[MOS scales]] for this temperament, which have sizes 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25.

=== Sagittal notation ===
This notation uses the same sagittal sequence as EDOs [[23edo#Sagittal notation|23]] and [[33edo#Sagittal notation|33]], and is a superset of the notations for EDOs [[14edo#Sagittal notation|14]] and [[7edo#Sagittal notation|7]].

== Chord names ==
Ups and downs can be used to name 28edo chords. Because every interval is perfect, the quality can be omitted, and the words major, minor, augmented and diminished are never used.

28edo is particularly well suited to Whitewood in the same way that [[15edo|15edo]] is for Blackwood, as it has one third that is heavily tempered, but in a familiar way shared with 12edo, while the other one is significantly closer to just. (Contrast with 20 & 21edo, where one third remains the same as in 12, and the other is pushed further away, making the overall sound considerably more xenharmonic) This makes the 5ths more out of tune, but in a useful way, as you can stack major and minor thirds indefinitely until they repeat 4 octaves and 14 notes up, producing one of the largest nonrepeating harmonious chords possible in an edo this low. This produces mode of symmetry scales with two different modes and 4 different keys, making it equally easy to establish any chord in the scale as the root and modulate between them.

However, unlike 15, 28 is complex enough to do recognisable approximations of various diatonic scales and their modes, although they will sound noticeably out of tune and it's obviously not the best method of using the temperament.

Interestingly, as it has a near perfect 21/16, 28edo can also generate Oneirotonic scales (see [[13edo|13edo]]) by stacking it's 11th degree, and they actually sound better in this temperament.

28edo can be played on the [[Lumatone]]. See [[Lumatone mapping for 28edo]].
28edo can also be played on a [[14edo]] [[guitar]] with very little effort. See [[User:MisterShafXen/Skip fretting system 28 2 3]].
