Line 241:

: '''Yourmusic Productions''': Double the complexity, but considerably less than double the number of good-sounding combinations. A lot of extra work for little extra return.

: '''Carmen14edo/Bragtime''': Many people in the microtonal community write it off due to the notoriousness of "quarter tone music", but I'm particularly attracted to the new 12edo-polyphony key changes possible in this tuning.

: '''Deja Igliashon:''' it is an absolute crime that Western academic composers got into 24edo during the period when atonality was in vogue, and approached it with no care or consideration for the wealth of concordant harmonic possibilities it presents. It is ~~absolutely~~ awesome in no-7s 19-limit JI, like just try 0-200-400-550-700-850-1100-1300-1500¢, and tell me it's not doing just as good at approximating 8:9:10:11:12:13:15:17:19, as any other EDOs of similar size or smaller are doing at whatever harmonic series approximations they're known for. 24edo just gives you all kinds of fun ways to tack the 11th and 13th harmonics onto ~~regular~~ 12-tone harmonies, and it really deserves to be recognized for that, not for atonal discordance.
