360edo is [[consistent]] to the [[7-odd-limit]], but [[harmonic]] [[3/1|3]] is about halfway between its steps. It can also be used with 2.5.9.13 subgroup.  
The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.<br>
 
<h4>Original Wikitext content:</h4>
In the 5-limit, the [[patent val]] [[support]]s the [[misty]] temperament, and in the 7-limit 360edo supports the [[trimisty]] (name proposed by Eliora) 63 & 99 temperament with the comma basis {[[10976/10935]], 2097152/2083725}, which is similar to the misty temperament but has a period of 1/9- rather than 1/3-octave.

360edo provides the optimal patent val in the 11-limit, and otherwise a good tuning in the 13-limit for [[degrees]], the {{nowrap|140 &amp; 220}} temperament with period 1\20. Aside from that, it provides the optimal patent val for the {{nowrap|41 &amp; 360}} temperament with comma basis {10976/10935, 16384000000/16209796869}, on which it has lower badness than any other 7-limit temperament for which 360edo gives the optimal patent val. It also supports {{nowrap|12 &amp; 360}} with the comma basis {[[390625/388962]], 67108864/66430125}.

Aside from the patent val, there is a number of mappings to be considered. The 360d val, {{val|360 571 836 '''1010'''}}, tempers out 3136/3125, 5120/5103, and extends the misty temperament in to the 7-limit. It is also a tuning for the 12th-octave [[magnesium]] temperament.

360 is the 13th [[highly composite edo]], with many proper divisors: {{EDOs| 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120, 180 }}. One step of 360edo is known as '''the Dröbisch angle''', an [[interval size measure]] first proposed by Moritz Dröbisch in the 19th century at first merely by the name "angle".
 
== Table of intervals ==
[[Eliora]] proposes notating 360edo with calendar dates, Jan 1 being the tonic, Jan 2 being the next step, etc, and each month having even 30 days. The notation is convenient because 1 month in this scenario is equal to 1 semitone, and corresponds to [[12edo]].
 
Any other notation system involving the number 360 can also be used.

360edo is used in the {{w|eyeborg}}, which maps its scale degrees onto color hues, thus converting color into sound waves. The device was originally intended to help colorblind individuals.
