Likewise, if an octave of 8edo were notated as J K L M N O P Q J with no sharps or flats, there would be no EUs. Though, this type of notation is obviously only practical for small edos. | Likewise, if an octave of 8edo were notated as J K L M N O P Q J with no sharps or flats, there would be no EUs.

Some notations, like ups and downs, notate all but the largest edos with only a single additional pair of accidentals. Other notations, like Sagittal and SKULO, notate edos using various commas such as 81/80, 64/63, and 33/32. Thus they notate an edo interval as a nearby JI interval, indicating the "feel" of the interval. For some edos, these notations use multiple such commas. For example, Sagittal notates [[41edo]] using 81/80 and 33/32, and SKULO notates it using all three commas. Each comma used adds a pair of accidentals, and hence increases the minimum number of EUs needed, complicating the respelling of intervals. | Some notations, like ups and downs, notate all but the largest edos with only a single additional pair of accidentals.
