Template:Fractional-octave navigation 29edo is notable for being the first equal division to have a more precise 3/2 than 12edo, and the first tuning to be consistent in the 15-odd-limit. 29th-octave temperaments occur naturally when temperament-merging edos whose greatest common divisor is 29.
Temperaments discussed elsewhere include:
Mystery, being a notable 13-limit temperament, has a dedicated page.
Copper
Copper temperament is derived from a 5-limit comma called copper comma, because it is constructed the same way towards 29edo as Kirnberger's atom is towards 12edo. A fifth of each of these tunings is modified by a tiny amount, then a circle of these fifths is set to close eventually at the octave.
Surprisingly, despite 29edo's fifth being closer to 3/2 than 12edo's, copper has a higher TE error than atomic and is not a very high accuracy temperament.
