There have been various endeavours, also in recent history, to establish a common tuning standard. A few of these are described in a [[http://www.ozanyarman.com/files/34%27ten_79%27a.pdf|paper]] by Ozan Yarman. However, none of these endeavours have been really successful (at least not as successful as 12edo in the western music). [[24edo]] has found a certain dissemination, especially in the arabic world; but many consider it a bad compromise. Other equal temperaments that have been used are [[53edo]] and [[72edo]]. And even those (apart from getting impractical because of their high number of notes!) do not cover all details.

A system that covers many details to a satisfactorial degree is proposed in [[http://www.ozanyarman.com/misc/Ozan_Yarman_tez.pdf|Ozan Yarman's dissertation]] (also summarized in the mentioned [[http://www.ozanyarman.com/files/34%27ten_79%27a.pdf|paper]] ): a 79-tone [[MOSScales|MOS]] subset of [[159edo]]. A short description (quote of a posting on the yahoo tuning list) is also [[79MOS 159edo|here]].

For practical purposes (from the point of number of notes), Ozan Yarman proposes [[34edo]] and [[41edo]] as acceptable compromises.
