Created page with "*0: A fancy way to say “pitchless”. *1: Equivalent to 2-limit JI. Not much about harmony. Possibly useful for a transition between different tunings...."

*[[12edo|12]]: A good tuning for almost all music, but maybe not perfect. Very excellent [[3/2]] as well as prime [[17/1|17]] and [[19/1|19]] for its size. Easy to make [[../12neji|accurate NEJIs]].

*[[19edo|19]]: [[Meantone]], but with a too flat fifth. Stran. Also a compressed [[Carlos Beta]]. 31 is more preferable. The lower bound of a good fifth.

*[[31edo|31]]: Ideal for pure-octave [[meantone]], combining lots of 11-limit extensions in a single tuning. For other temperaments its flat fifth is a drawback.
