The '''29-limit''' consists of [[just intonation]] [[interval]]s whose [[ratio]]s contain no [[prime factor]]s higher than 29. It is the 10th [[prime limit]] and is thus a superset of the [[23-limit]] and a subset of the [[31-limit]]. The prime 29 is notable as being the prime that ends a record prime gap starting at 23. Thus, the 29-limit is in some sense analogous to the [[11-limit]] as both include the prime ending a record prime gap.

The 29-limit is a rank-10 system, and can be modeled in a 9-dimensional lattice, with the primes 3 to 29 represented by each dimension. The prime 2 does not appear in the typical 29-limit lattice because [[octave equivalence]] is presumed. If octave equivalence is not presumed, a tenth dimension is needed.
 
These things are contained by the 29-limit, but not the 23-limit:
* The [[29-odd-limit]];
* Mode 15 of the harmonic or subharmonic series.
