[[8edo|8]] - A very weird edo. It has passable 10:11:12:14 chords, but nothing "rooted" (unless 750 cents is an acceptable 3/2).
[[8edo|8]] - A very weird edo. It has passable 10:11:12:14 chords, but nothing "rooted" (unless 750 cents is an acceptable 3/2).
[[9edo|9]] (aka [[14edt]]) - On the one hand you can treat the 667 cent intervals as 3/2, yielding an extreme version of [[mavila]] (or 7-limit [[armodue]]) which is a very acceptable tuning for pelog selisir. On the other hand you can treat it has having no 3rd harmonics, as something like a 2.5.7/3 temperament. (Treating it as a super-accurate 2.27/25.7/3 temperament makes no sense to me.) First EDO with **recognizable** "major" and "minor" chords.

[[10edo|10]] (aka [[16edt]]) - [[Blackwood]] with neutral thirds. Or, blackwood intersects [[dicot]]. Same circle-of-3/2s structure as 5edo, but now there are 360-cent "neutral thirds" and 600-cent "tritones". It's easy to trick people into thinking that [[decimal]] MODMOSes are the familiar "blues scale" (and for that matter, that 0 360 960 cents is a "dominant seventh").

[[11edo|11]] - Every other note of [[22edo|22]]. This makes it a great 2.9.7.11 temperament. Includes [[machine]], [[orgone]], [[http://x31eq.com/cgi-bin/rt.cgi?ets=11_14&amp;limit=2_9_7_11]] and [[http://x31eq.com/cgi-bin/rt.cgi?ets=11_20&amp;limit=2_9_7_11]]

[[12edo|12]] (aka [[19edt]]) - Excellent 5-limit temperament with strong hints of 7. The ideal tuning for the wildly popular [[dominant]] temperament. Also [[augmented]] and [[diminished]]. Currently used as a basis for adaptive tuning, as well as directly, by a huge number of "non-xenharmonic" ensembles.
