'''56edo''' divides the octave into 56 parts of 21.429 cents each. It shares it's near perfect major third with [[28edo]], which it doubles, while also adding a superpythagorean 5th that is a convergent towards the [[Metallic harmonic series|bronze metallic mean]], following [[17edo]] and preceding [[185edo]].  
{{EDO intro|56}}, a size close to the syntonic comma [[81/80]].

It shares it's near perfect major third with [[28edo]], which it doubles, while also adding a superpythagorean 5th that is a convergent towards the [[Metallic harmonic series|bronze metallic mean]], following [[17edo]] and preceding [[185edo]].  


56edo can be used to tune [[hemithirds]], [[superkleismic]], [[sycamore]] and [[keen]] temperaments, and using {{val| 56 89 130 158 }} (56d) as the equal temperament val, for [[pajara]]. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for 7-, 11- and 13-limit [[Sycamore family #Septimal sycamore|sycamore]], and the 11-limit 56d val is close to the [[POTE tuning]] for 11-limit pajara.
