2 1 1 1 1 1 1 [[1L 6s]] MOS
8edo is fairly composite, so the only step that generates a [[mos]] scale that covers every interval other than the 1 is the 3, producing scales of 332 and [[3L_2s|21212]]. In terms of temperaments, this is best interpreted as [[Father_family|Father]], as 8edo is the highest edo that tempers out the diatonic semitone in it's [[patent val]], merging 5/4 and 4/3 into a single interval, which is also the generator. This means major and minor chords are rotations of each other, making them inaccurate but very simple, with even the 5 note mos having 3 of both and providing a functional skeleton of 5-limit harmony, albeit with some very strange enharmonic equivalences. In terms of 7-limit extensions things get even more inaccurate, as the patent val supports [[Father_family#Mother|Mother]], but the ideal tuning for that is much closer to [[5edo]]. The d val supports septimal father and [[Father_family#Pater|Pater]], and is much closer to the ideal tuning for both, as the extremely sharp 7 works better with the 3&5. In terms of multi-period temperaments, it makes for a near perfect [[Father_family#Walid|Walid]] or a much less accurate [[Dimipent_family#Diminished|Diminished]] scale.
