6edo is identical to the 12edo whole-tone scale, however, it does have xenharmonic theoretical appeal. The 6-form is a simple basis for harmony in the [[2.5.7 subgroup]], somewhat like the [[Heptatonic|7-form]] for 2.3.5 and the [[Pentatonic|5-form]] for 2.3.7. This means that 6edo itself can be seen as a particularly crude tuning of temperaments like [[didacus]], in the same way as 7edo for [[meantone]] or 5edo for [[superpyth]]. The root chord in this harmonic system can be seen as: | 6edo is identical to the [[12edo]] whole-tone scale, however, it does have xenharmonic theoretical appeal.
