For both of these there are more optimal tunings, however. The generating interval for meantone is a fifth, and the fifth of 19-et is flatter than the usual for meantone; a more accurate approximation is <a class="wiki_link" href="/31edo">31 equal temperament</a>. Similarly, the generating interval of magic temperament is a major third, and again 19-et's is flatter; <a class="wiki_link" href="/41edo">41 equal temperament</a> more closely matches it.<br /> | For both of these there are more optimal tunings, however.

However, for all of these 19-et has the practical advantage of requiring fewer pitches, which makes physical realizations of it easier to build.
