| | The 3/1 is 6.5 cents sharp and the 5/1 is 4 cents sharp, with 7, 11, and 13 more accurate but a little flat. It tempers out 15625/15552 in the 5-limit and 686/675, 4000/3969 and 6144/6125 in the 7-limit, and provides the optimal patent val for the 7-limit 27&56 temperament with wedgie {{multival|5 18 17 17 13 -11}}. In the 11-limit it tempers out 121/120, 176/175 and 385/384, and in the 13-limit 91/90, 169/168 and 196/195, and it provides the optimal patent val for the 11-limit 22&61 temperament and the 13-limit 15&83 temperament. 83edo is the 23rd [[prime EDO]]. | ||
Every odd harmonic between the 7th and the 17th is tuned flatly. As a consequence, this tuning provides a good approximation of the 7:9:11:13:15:17 [[hexad]], and especially of the 9:11:13 [[triad]]. | |||
