The ever-arising question in microtonal music, how to play it on instruments designed for 12edo, has a relatively simple answer in the case of 24edo: use two standard instruments tuned a quartertone apart. This [[Microtonal_Keyboards#twelvenoteoctavescales|"12 note octave scales"]] approach is used in a wide part of the existing literature—see below.

It is usually done with pianos, since tuning one of them to displace it from the other by a quarter-tone is simple (although laborious); nevertheless, it can be done with fixed-pitch 12EDO instruments by manufacturing a custom set of bars (etc.) for one fo them, as shown in djmoderne's [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hs5vQyMbq8I ''Quarter tone Vibraphone tests''] (2014).
