62 = 2 × 31 and the [[patent val]] of 62edo is a contorted [[31edo]] through the 11-limit, but it makes for a good tuning in the higher limits. In the 13-limit it tempers out [[169/168]], [[1188/1183]], [[847/845]] and [[676/675]]; in the 17-limit [[221/220]], [[273/272]], and [[289/288]]; in the 19-limit [[153/152]], [[171/170]], [[209/208]], [[286/285]], and [[361/360]]. Unlike 31edo, which has a sharp profile for primes [[13/1|13]], [[17/1|17]], [[19/1|19]] and [[23/1|23]], 62edo has a flat profile for these, as it removes the distinction of otonal and utonal [[superparticular]] pairs of the primes (e.g. 13/12 vs 14/13 for prime 13) by tempering out the corresponding [[square-particular]]s. Interestingly, the relative size differences of consecutive harmonics are well preserved for all first 24 harmonics, and 62edo is one of the few meantone edos that achieve this, great for those who seek higher-limit [[meantone]] harmony.
