205edo is the default tuning for the [[http://www.h-pi.com/TPX28features.html|Tonal Plexus midi controller]]. See the [[http://www.h-pi.com/theory/huntsystem1.html|theory part]] on the same website. Aside from the 24\205 generator of quanic, the 58\205 generator of amity, and the 33\205 generator of hemithirds, 205edo supplies an excellent [[meantone]] fifth in 119\205, an excellent [[myna]] generator in 53\205, and a very good [[porcupine]] generator with 28\205, which is also an excellent generator for the higher-limit extension porky, and when sliced in half to 14\205, can even be used for nautilus. These facts are all potentially of significance to anyone using a 205edo based system such as the Tonal Plexus.

The 119\205 meantone fifth is extremely close to the 1/4-comma fifth, being only 0.007 cents sharp of it. Moreover the steps are half a cent flat of 1/4 of a syntonic comma. This makes the Tonal Plexus keyboard potentially of use in implementing [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicola_Vicentino|Nicola Vicentino]]'s [[http://sonic-arts.org/monzo/vicentino/vicentino.htm|adaptive-JI scheme of 1555]]. It also means that authentic 1/4-comma meantone tuning is, for practical purposes, available in 205 and allows for historically authentic performances of 1/4-comma music on the historically newfangled Tonal Plexus.
