3. 26edo nearly perfectly approximates the 7th and 11th harmonics, and an entire system may be constructed analogous to that based on the 3rd and 5th harmonics. In terms of subgroups, this is the 2.7.11 subgroup, and on this 26 tempers out the pair of commas 65536/65219 and 117649/117128. The 65536/65219 comma, the orgonisma, leads to [[Orgonia|orgone temperament]] with an approximate 77/64 generator of 7\26, with MOS scales of size 7, 11 and 15. The 117649/117128 comma leads to a half-octave period and an approximate 49/44 generator of 4\26, leading to MOS of size 8 and 14. | 3. 26edo nearly perfectly approximates the 7th and 11th harmonics, and an entire system may be constructed analogous to that based on the 3rd and 5th harmonics.

5. It also has a pretty good 17th harmonic and tempers out the comma 459:448, thus three fifths gives a 17:14 and four gives a 21:17 | 5. It also has a pretty good 17th harmonic and tempers out the comma 459:448, thus three fifths gives a 17:14 and four gives a 21:17; "mushtone". Mushtone is high in badness, but 26edo does it pretty well (and [[33edo]] even better). Because 26edo also tempers out 85:84, the septendecimal major and minor thirds are equivalent to their pental counterparts, making mushtone the same as flattone. | ||
