84edo divides the octave into 84 equal parts of size 14.286 cents each.
Theory
Its patent val ⟨84 133 195 236 291] makes it an excellent orwell tuning and also a good one for compton, and the 84e val, ⟨84 133 195 236 290], is almost identical to the 11-limit POTE tuning for orwell. In the 13-limit it is the optimal patent val for the rank five temperament tempering out 144/143.
84edo is where the orwell temperament takes its name from, since the generator of 7/6 is equal to 19 steps of the EDO, referencing the book 1984. The maximum evenness orwell in this temperament is a 31 note scale. Orwell in 84edo comes in two varieties - 31e & 84, being the proper orwell, and 31 & 84, being newspeak.
