*[[26edo|26]]: A stack of [[7/4]]. Other intervals suck. Meantone but tuned terribly. Incomplete [[130edo]].

*[[27edo|27]]: Worse than both 12- and 22edo for 5-limit. Its fifth sucks and its diatonic scale makes little sense. Its 7/3 and 7/5 are good, but 3, 5 and 7 are off. Use [[108edo]] to make it really a 7-limit EDO, and [[270edo]] is excellent. When I hear its ~[[10:12:15]] and ~[[6:7:9]] chord I feel the fifth is obviously off. I have listened to both 22edo and 27edo and I feel the former is better. Compared to 22edo, it is like fixing 7 by ruining 5 and partly 3. There are beatings here and there. It really needs compression. The fact that [[53edo]] is good indicates that 26- and 27edo are probably bad.

*[[27edo|27]]: A stack of [[7/6]]. Worse than both 12- and 22edo for 5-limit. Its fifth sucks and its diatonic scale makes little sense. Its 7/3 and 7/5 are good, but 3, 5 and 7 are off. Use [[108edo]] to make it really a 7-limit EDO, and [[270edo]] is excellent. When I hear its ~[[10:12:15]] and ~[[6:7:9]] chord I feel the fifth is obviously off.

It really needs compression. The fact that [[53edo]] is good indicates that 26- and 27edo are probably bad.

*[[28edo|28]]: [[Whitewood]] [[diminished]]. Kinda opposite from [[15edo]]. The best you can get with [[whitewood]].

*[[29edo|29]]: A circle of fifths in [[mystery]], which supports [[pele]]. The smallest EDO with a better fifth than 12edo. Not so useful on its own.
