What follows is a comparison of stretched- and compressed-octave 36edo tunings.  


Of the stretched-octave tunings listed, ''36ed513/256'' performs best in this comparison, approximating all 11-limit primes with less than 36% relative error (<12 cents error).
Of the stretched-octave tunings listed, ''36ed513/256'', with a step size about 33.25 cents, performs best in this comparison, approximating all 11-limit primes with less than 36% relative error (<12 cents error).


Of the compressed-octave tunings listed, ''36ed511/256'' performs best in this comparison, approximating all 11-limit primes with less than 36% relative error (<12 cents error).
Of the compressed-octave tunings listed, ''36ed511/256'', with a step size about 33.4 cents, performs best in this comparison, approximating all 11-limit primes with less than 36% relative error (<12 cents error).
