Line 13:

*[[0edo|0]]: A fancy way to say “no melody”. The only tuning of the [[Single-pitch tuning|Om]] temperament. Important in theory, useless in practice.

*[[1edo|1]]: Equivalent to [[2-limit]] JI, unless you want to temper some other JI intervals into octaves. Not much about harmony. Possibly useful for a transition between different tunings.

*[[2edo|2]]: [[sqrt(2)|Half octaves]] aka symmetric [[~~tritones~~]]. Some notable approximations are [[7/5]], [[17/12]] and [[99/70]]. The key to tritone substitution, although sometimes asymmetric tritones or even non-tritone intervals can also be used.

*[[2edo|2]]: [[sqrt(2)|Half octaves]] aka symmetric [[tritone]]s. Some notable approximations are [[7/5]], [[17/12]] and [[99/70]]. The key to tritone substitution, although sometimes asymmetric tritones or even non-tritone intervals can also be used.

*[[3edo|3]]: [[12edo]] augmented chords. Treating its steps as [[63/50]] gives [[landscape]]. 3n-edos within 1000 that do not support landscape are probably bad in [[7-limit]].

*[[4edo|4]]: [[12edo]] diminished seventh chords.
