26edo tempers out [[81/80]] in the [[5-limit]], making it a [[meantone]] tuning with a very flat fifth. | 26edo tempers out [[81/80]] in the [[5-limit]], making it a [[meantone]] tuning with a very flat fifth (0.088957¢ flat of [[4/9-comma meantone]]). | ||
In the [[7-limit]], it tempers out 50/49, 525/512 and 875/864, and [[support]]s temperaments like [[injera]], [[flattone]], [[lemba]] and [[doublewide]]. It really comes into its own as a higher-limit temperament, being the smallest equal division which represents the [[13-odd-limit]] [[consistent]]ly. 26edo has a very good approximation of the harmonic seventh ([[7/4]]), as it is the denominator of a convergent to log<sub>2</sub>7. | In the [[7-limit]], it tempers out 50/49, 525/512 and 875/864, and [[support]]s temperaments like [[injera]], [[flattone]], [[lemba]] and [[doublewide]].
