3072edo's step is known as '''Octamu''' (eighth MIDI-resolution unit, 8mu, 2<sup>8</sup> = 256 equal divisions of the [[12edo]] semitone). The internal data structure of the 8mu requires two bytes, with the first bits of each byte reserved as a flags to indicate the byte's status as data, and one bit in the first byte to indicate the sign (+ or −) showing the direction of the pitch-bend up or down, and 5 other bits which are not used. The first data byte transmitted is the Least Significant Byte (LSB), equivalent to a fine-tuning. The second data byte transmitted is the Most Significant Byte (MSB), equivalent to a coarse-tuning. | 3072edo's step is known as '''Octamu''' (eighth MIDI-resolution unit, 8mu, 2<sup>8</sup> = 256 equal divisions of the [[12edo]] semitone).
