Below is a table showing the characteristics of each edo up to 72 in the context of traditional fifth-generator heptatonic ups and downs notation. Each row represents the steps of a chromatic semitone. Each column represents the steps of a diatonic semitone (limma, [[256/243]]), located between E–F and B–C.

If one's notation were pentatonic instead of heptatonic, the concept of sharpness would be applied to the limma not the apotome to get penta-sharpness. In the table below, the sharp-0 edos and the pentasharp-0 edos are bolded. | ||
