The best diaschismic. 13-limit stuff, though a bit sharp and not as accurate as 41-edo, it is good. I haven't composed anything with it, however, as I think diaschismic is kinda hard to conceptualize.

Still a good meantone edo, and though it is a much better approximant for golden meantone, I prefer using golden meantone as a rank-2, and not buying the entire gamut. The 19-limit usability is surprising, still. However, having all those new intervals inside a meantone edo feels in my opinion strangely unnatural, as we're stretching the meantone chain-of-fifths beyond what's supposed to. For bigger edos in this range, meantone ceases to do it for me, but I respect it. C | |||

The first compton edo that achieves any semblance of JIoid goodness. It has an astounding 11-limit, and decent 19-limit! It's also a multiple of 12, so building it is trivial! It's a miracle (pun intended)! | The first compton edo that achieves any semblance of JIoid goodness. It has an astounding 11-limit, and decent 19-limit!

I haven't composed in it directly, but since I did compose in 7-limit JI, it'd sound the same. It features a dead-accurate 7-limit that I cannot distinguish from just. It's that good. The great innacuracy of the 11 is a bit sad, though it still has a usable 13, which has that going for it. | I haven't composed in it directly, but since I did compose in 7-limit JI, it'd sound the same.
