57edo can be used to tune the [[mothra]] temperament, and is an excellent tuning for the 2.5/3.7.11.13.17.19 [[just intonation subgroup]]. One way to describe 57edo is that it has a [[5-limit]] part consisting of three [[ring number|ring]]s of 19edo, plus a no-threes no-fives part which is much more accurate. A good generator to exploit the 2.5/3.7.11.13.17.19 aspect of 57 is the approximate [[11/8]], which is 26\57. This gives the [[19-limit]] 46 & 57 temperament [[heinz]].

[[5-limit|5-limit]] [[comma]]s: [[81/80]], [[3125/3072]]
Using the full prime-limit [[patent val]], the equal temperament tempers out [[81/80]], [[1029/1024]], and [[3125/3072]] in the 7-limit; and [[99/98]], [[385/384]], [[441/440]], and [[625/616]] in the [[11-limit]]. A good generator to exploit the 2.5/3.7.11.13.17.19 aspect of 57 is the approximate [[11/8]], which is 26\57. This gives the [[19-limit]] 46 & 57 temperament [[heinz]]. It can also be used to tune [[mothra]] as well as [[trismegistus]].
