'''89edo''' divides the octave into 89 steps of size 13.48 [[cent]]s each, and [[tempering out|tempers out]] the commas [[126/125]], [[1728/1715]], [[32805/32768]], [[2401/2400]], [[176/175]], [[243/242]], [[441/440]] and [[540/539]]. It is an especially good tuning for [[Starling temperaments|myna temperament]], both in the [[7-limit]], tempering out 126/125 and 1728/1715, and in the [[11-limit]], where 176/175 is tempered out also. It is likewise a good tuning for the rank three temperament thrush, tempering out 126/125 and 176/175.

89 has a fifth less than a cent flat and a major third less than five cents sharp, with a 7 two cents sharp and an 11 1.5 cents sharp. It thus delivers reasonably good 11-limit harmony and very good no-fives harmony along with the very useful approximations represented by its commas. On a related note, a notable characteristic of this EDO is that it is the lowest in a series of four consecutive EDOs to temper out [[Quartisma|117440512/117406179]].
== Theory ==
89edo has a [[3/1|harmonic 3]] less than a cent flat and a [[5/1|harmonic 5]] less than five cents sharp, with a [[7/1|7]] two cents sharp and an [[11/1|11]] 1.5 cents sharp. It thus delivers reasonably good 11-limit harmony and very good no-fives harmony along with the very useful approximations represented by its commas. On a related note, a notable characteristic of this edo is that it is the lowest in a series of four consecutive edos to temper out [[quartisma]].
 
It [[tempering out|tempers out]] 32805/32768 ([[schisma]]) in the 5-limit; [[126/125]], [[1728/1715]], and [[2401/2400]] in the 7-limit; and [[176/175]], [[243/242]], [[441/440]] and [[540/539]] in the 11-limit. It is an especially good tuning for the [[myna]] temperament, both in the [[7-limit]], tempering out 126/125 and 1728/1715, and in the [[11-limit]], where 176/175 is tempered out also. It is likewise a good tuning for the rank-3 temperament [[thrush]], tempering out 126/125 and 176/175.
 
The [[13-limit]] is a little tricky as [[13/1|13]] is tuned distinctly flat, tempering out [[169/168]], [[364/363]], [[729/728]], [[832/825]], and [[1287/1280]]. [[13/10]] and [[15/13]] are particularly out of tune in this system, each being about 9 cents off. The alternative 89f val fixes that but tunes [[13/8]] much sharper, conflating it with [[18/11]]. It tempers out [[144/143]], [[196/195]], [[351/350]], and [[352/351]] instead, and [[support]]s 13-limit myna and thrush. However, [[58edo]] is a better tuning for those purposes.
 
The [[17/1|17]] and [[19/1|19]] are tuned fairly well, making it [[consistent]] to the no-13 [[21-odd-limit]]. The equal temperament tempers out [[256/255]] and [[561/560]] in the 17-limit; and [[171/170]], [[361/360]], [[513/512]], and [[1216/1215]] in the 19-limit.
 
89edo is the 11th in the {{w|Fibonacci sequence}}, which means its 55th step approximates logarithmic φ (i.e. 1200{{nowrap|(φ − 1)}}{{c}} within a fraction of a cent.

89edo is the 24th [[prime_numbers|prime]] edo, and the 11th in the Fibonacci sequence, which means its 55th step approximates logarithmic phi (i.e. (phi-1)*1200 cents) within a fraction of a cent.
