enrichment with information, emphasizing relation to orwell, i'll add relative error later because it isn't simply absolute calibrated to edo size, it's by complexity

Its [[patent val]] {{val| 84 133 195 236 291}} makes it an excellent orwell tuning and also a good one for compton, and the 84e val, {{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]].
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 [[Wikipedia:Nineteen Eighty-Four|book 1984]]. The maximum evenness orwell in this temperament is a 31 note scale, and other MOS are of size 9, 13, and 22. Orwell in 84edo comes in two varieties - 31e & 84, being the proper orwell, and 31 & 84, being [[Newspeak|newspeak.]]

From a regular temperament perspective, orwell in 84edo comes in two varieties - the 84e val {{val| 84 133 195 236 290 }}, supporting the original orwell, and its [[patent val]] {{val| 84 133 195 236 291}} representing [[newspeak]]. 84edo orwell offers MOS of size 9, 13, 22, and 31, of which the 31 note scale is the maximum evenness scale.
 
=== Other ===
84edo is a significantly composite number, with divisors 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 84. Being a small multiple of 12, it tempres out the [[Pythagorean comma]], thus supporting period-12 temperament [[compton]]. Being a small multiple of 28, it tempers out the [[oquatonic comma]], which maps 5/4 to 9\28.{{Primes in edo|84}}
