The '''75 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''75edo'''), or the '''75-tone equal temperament''' ('''75tet'''), '''75 equal temperament''' ('''75et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, divides the [[octave]] into 75 [[equal]] parts of exactly 16 [[cent]]s each.

In the 5-limit, 75et tempers out 20000/19683 ([[tetracot comma]]) and 2109375/2097152 ([[semicomma]]), and provides a good tuning for the [[tetracot]] temperament. In the 7-limit, it tenpers [[225/224]] and [[1728/1715]]. In the 11-limit, 75e [[val]] {{val| 75 119 174 211 '''260''' }} scores lower in [[TE error|error]], and tempers [[100/99]] and [[243/242]], whereas the [[patent val]] {{val| 75 119 174 211 '''259''' }} tempers [[99/98]] and [[121/120]]. In the 13-limit, it tempers [[325/324]] and [[512/507]], 17-limit [[120/119]] and [[256/255]] and 19-limit 190/189 and 250/247.
75et [[tempering out|tempers out]] 20000/19683 ([[tetracot comma]]) and 2109375/2097152 ([[semicomma]]) in the [[5-limit]], and provides a good tuning for the [[tetracot]] temperament. It tempers out [[225/224]] and [[1728/1715]] in the [[7-limit]], [[support]]ing [[bunya]] and [[orwell]], and providing the [[optimal patent val]] for [[fog]].  


It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for the [[fog]] temperament in the 7-limit and the [[Temperament merging|31 & 44 temperament]] in the 19-limit.  
In the [[11-limit]], 75e [[val]] {{val| 75 119 174 211 '''260''' }} (corresponding to [[#Riemann zeta function|401zpi]]) scores lower in [[TE error|error]], and tempers [[100/99]] and [[243/242]], whereas the [[patent val]] {{val| 75 119 174 211 '''259''' }} tempers [[99/98]] and [[121/120]]. It tempers out [[325/324]] and [[512/507]] in the [[13-limit]], [[120/119]] and [[256/255]] in the [[17-limit]], and [[190/189]] and 250/247 in the 19-limit. It is an excellent tuning for 2.3.5.11.13 [[tetracot]], and its extension [[bunya]] up to the full 19-limit.


Since 75 is part of the Fibonacci sequence beginning with 5 and 12, it closely approximates peppermint temperament. The size of its fifth is exactly 704c, which is very close to the peppermint fifth of 704.096c. This makes it suitable for neo-Gothic tunings.
Since 75 is part of the {{w|Fibonacci sequence}} beginning with [[5edo|5]] and [[12edo|12]], after [[46edo|46]] and before [[121edo|121]], it closely approximates the [[peppermint]] temperament. The size of its fifth is exactly 704{{c}}, which is very close to the peppermint fifth of 704.096 cents. This makes it suitable for neo-Gothic tunings. It also approximates the [[Carlos Beta]] scale well ({{nowrap|4\75 ≈ 1\Carlos Beta}}), though [[94edo]] does even better.

=== Riemann zeta function ===
The [[The_Riemann_zeta_function_and_tuning|Riemann zeta function]] includes two peaks of similar magnitude around 75edo: '''400zpi''' and '''401zpi''', corresponding to the 75dfghk and 75eij vals, with differing mappings for all primes above 5. 400zpi tempers out [[686/675]], [[875/864]], and [[5120/5103]] in the [[7-limit]], [[121/120]] and [[441/440]] in the [[11-limit]], [[91/90]], [[352/351]], and [[2080/2079]] in the [[13-limit]], [[136/135]] in the [[17-limit]], [[190/189]] in the [[19-limit]], and [[161/160]] in the [[23-limit]]. 401zpi tempers out [[20000/19683]], [[1728/1715]], and [[225/224]] in the 7-limit, [[100/99]] and [[2200/2187]] in the 11-limit, [[144/143]] and [[275/273]] in the 13-limit, [[120/119]] and [[1225/1224]] in the 17-limit, [[190/189]] in the 19-limit, and [[162/161]] in the 23-limit. Its step is mapped to [[49/48]] (the slendro diesis) in 400zpi, but [[64/63]] (Archytas' comma) in 401zpi and 75p.

In the diagrams above, a sagittal symbol followed by an equals sign (=) means that the following comma is the symbol's [[Sagittal notation#Primary comma|primary comma]] (the comma it ''exactly'' represents in JI), while an approximately equals sign (≈) means it is a secondary comma (a comma it ''approximately'' represents in JI). In both cases the symbol exactly represents the tempered version of the comma in this EDO.
