68edo's step is half of the step size of [[34edo]], which does well in the 5-limit but not so well in the 7-limit, and one quarter the size of [[17edo]], which does well in the [[3-limit]], but not so well in the [[5-limit]]. The luck continues: 68 is a strong [[7-limit]] system, but does not do as well in the [[11-limit]]; though it's certainly usable for that purpose, it does not represent the 11-limit diamond [[consistent]]ly since [[11/9]] is not mapped to its best approximation. However, 68edo maps many higher primes better than it does 11 (specifically 13 and 23 inherited from 17edo, 17 inherited from 34edo, and 19 and 31 new to 68edo), notably being [[consistent]] in the entire no-11s 25-[[odd limit]] add-31. It achieves this by having a consistent sharp tendency among all primes up to 31, save 11 and 29. Therefore, a slight octave compression, such as in [[158ed5]] or [[191ed7]], can improve upon the accuracy of 68edo's harmonic series.

The 3rd degree of 68edo can be used as a generator for [[23edo and octave stretching|stretched 23edo]], which also acts as the [[quartkeenlig]] temperament tempering out the quartisma, 385/384 and 6250/6237. It results in a 23edo scale with octaves stretched by 1 step of 68edo (octaves of 1217.65{{c}}). It also works as a [[22L&nbsp;1s]] MOS of the quartkeenlig temperament.
 
The 5th degree of 68edo can be used as a generator for [[88cET]], while two steps almost perfectly approximate [[50/49]], allowing for the tempering out of 2/(50/49)<sup>34</sup>.

=== Subsets and supersets ===
Since 68 factors into {{factorization|68}}, 68edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 4, 17, and 34 }}. Important supersets include [[612edo]], a 5-limit record-holder, and [[680edo]].

68 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 68edo or 68ed2), also called 68-tone equal temperament (68tet) or 68 equal temperament (68et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 68 equal parts of about 17.6 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/68, or the 68th root of 2.

Theory

68edo's step is half of the step size of 34edo, which does well in the 5-limit but not so well in the 7-limit, and one quarter the size of 17edo, which does well in the 3-limit, but not so well in the 5-limit. The luck continues: 68 is a strong 7-limit system, but does not do as well in the 11-limit; though it's certainly usable for that purpose, it does not represent the 11-limit diamond consistently since 11/9 is not mapped to its best approximation. However, 68edo maps many higher primes better than it does 11 (specifically 13 and 23 inherited from 17edo, 17 inherited from 34edo, and 19 and 31 new to 68edo), notably being consistent in the entire no-11s 25-odd limit add-31. It achieves this by having a consistent sharp tendency among all primes up to 31, save 11 and 29. Therefore, a slight octave compression, such as in 158ed5 or 191ed7, can improve upon the accuracy of 68edo's harmonic series.

As a 7-limit system, 68et tempers out 2048/2025, 245/243, 4000/3969, 15625/15552, 3136/3125, 6144/6125, and 2401/2400. It supports octacot, shrutar, hemiwürschmidt, hemikleismic, clyde and neptune temperaments, and supplies the optimal patent val for 11-limit hemikleismic.

The 3rd degree of 68edo can be used as a generator for stretched 23edo, which also acts as the quartkeenlig temperament tempering out the quartisma, 385/384 and 6250/6237. It results in a 23edo scale with octaves stretched by 1 step of 68edo (octaves of 1217.65 ¢). It also works as a 22L 1s MOS of the quartkeenlig temperament.

The 5th degree of 68edo can be used as a generator for 88cET, while two steps almost perfectly approximate 50/49, allowing for the tempering out of 2/(50/49)34.

Subsets and supersets

Since 68 factors into 22 × 17, 68edo has subset edos 2, 4, 17, and 34. Important supersets include 612edo, a 5-limit record-holder, and 680edo.

Notation

Ups and downs notation

68edo can be notated using ups and downs notation using Helmholtz–Ellis accidentals:

Step offset 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
Sharp symbol  
Flat symbol

Sagittal notation

This notation uses the same sagittal sequence as 75-EDO.

Sagittal notationPeriodic table of EDOs with sagittal notation64/6381/8033/3227/26

In the diagrams above, a sagittal symbol followed by an equals sign (=) means that the following comma is the symbol's 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.

Approximation to JI

Interval mappings

The following tables show how 15-odd-limit intervals are represented in 68edo. Prime harmonics are in bold; inconsistent intervals are in italics.
