72-tone equal temperament (or 72-edo) divides the octave into 72 steps or //moria//. This produces a twelfth-tone tuning, with the whole tone measuring 200 cents, the same as in 12-tone equal temperament. 72-tone is also a superset of [[xenharmonic/24edo|24-tone equal temperament]], a common and standard tuning of [[xenharmonic/Arabic, Turkish, Persian|Arabic]] music, and has itself been used to tune Turkish music.

Composers that used 72-tone include Alois Hába, Ivan Wyschnegradsky, Julián Carillo (who is better associated with [[xenharmonic/96edo|96-edo]]), Iannis Xenakis, Ezra Sims, James Tenney and the jazz musician Joe Maneri.

72-tone equal temperament approximates [[xenharmonic/11-limit|11-limit just intonation]] exceptionally well, is consistent in the [[xenharmonic/17-limit|17-limit]], and is the ninth [[xenharmonic/The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning#Zeta%20EDO%20lists|Zeta integral tuning]]. The octave, fifth and fourth are the same size as they would be in 12-tone, 72, 42 and 30 steps respectively, but the major third (5/4) measures 23 steps, not 24, and other major intervals are one step flat of 12-et while minor ones are one step sharp. The septimal minor seventh (7/4) is 58 steps, while the undecimal semiaugmented fourth (11/8) is 33.

72 is an excellent tuning for [[xenharmonic/Gamelismic clan|miracle temperament]], especially the 11-limit version, and the related rank three temperament [[xenharmonic/Marvel family#Prodigy|prodigy]], and is a good tuning for other temperaments and scales, including wizard, harry, catakleismic, compton, unidec and tritikleismic.

=Temperaments= 

It provides the optimal patent val for miracle and wizard in the 7-limit, miracle, catakleismic, bikleismic, compton, ennealimnic, ennealiminal, enneaportent, marvolo and catalytic in the 11-limit, and catakleismic, bikleismic, compton, comptone, enneaportent, ennealim, catalytic, marvolo, manna, hendec, lizard, neominor, hours, and semimiracle in the 13-limit.

=Harmonic Scale= 
Mode 8 of the harmonic series -- [[xenharmonic/overtone scales|overtones 8 through 16]], octave repeating -- is well-represented in 72edo. Note that all the different step sizes are distinguished, except for 13:12 and 14:13 (conflated to 8\72edo, 133.3 cents) and 15:14 and 16:15 (conflated to 7\72edo, 116.7 cents, the generator for miracle temperament).

=Z function= 
72edo is the ninth [[xenharmonic/The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning#Zeta%20EDO%20lists|zeta integral edo]], as well as being a peak and gap edo, and the maximum value of the [[xenharmonic/The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning#The%20Z%20function|Z function]] in the region near 72 occurs at 71.9506, giving an octave of 1200.824 cents, the stretched octaves of the zeta tuning. Below is a plot of Z in the region around 72.

72-tone equal temperament (or 72-edo) divides the octave into 72 steps or <em>moria</em>. This produces a twelfth-tone tuning, with the whole tone measuring 200 cents, the same as in 12-tone equal temperament. 72-tone is also a superset of <a class="wiki_link" href="https://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/24edo">24-tone equal temperament</a>, a common and standard tuning of <a class="wiki_link" href="https://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/Arabic%2C%20Turkish%2C%20Persian">Arabic</a> music, and has itself been used to tune Turkish music.<br />
<br />
Composers that used 72-tone include Alois Hába, Ivan Wyschnegradsky, Julián Carillo (who is better associated with <a class="wiki_link" href="https://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/96edo">96-edo</a>), Iannis Xenakis, Ezra Sims, James Tenney and the jazz musician Joe Maneri.<br />
<br />
72-tone equal temperament approximates <a class="wiki_link" href="https://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/11-limit">11-limit just intonation</a> exceptionally well, is consistent in the <a class="wiki_link" href="https://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/17-limit">17-limit</a>, and is the ninth <a class="wiki_link" href="https://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/The%20Riemann%20Zeta%20Function%20and%20Tuning#Zeta%20EDO%20lists">Zeta integral tuning</a>. The octave, fifth and fourth are the same size as they would be in 12-tone, 72, 42 and 30 steps respectively, but the major third (5/4) measures 23 steps, not 24, and other major intervals are one step flat of 12-et while minor ones are one step sharp. The septimal minor seventh (7/4) is 58 steps, while the undecimal semiaugmented fourth (11/8) is 33.<br />
<br />
72 is an excellent tuning for <a class="wiki_link" href="https://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/Gamelismic%20clan">miracle temperament</a>, especially the 11-limit version, and the related rank three temperament <a class="wiki_link" href="https://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/Marvel%20family#Prodigy">prodigy</a>, and is a good tuning for other temperaments and scales, including wizard, harry, catakleismic, compton, unidec and tritikleismic.<br />

 Mode 8 of the harmonic series -- <a class="wiki_link" href="https://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/overtone%20scales">overtones 8 through 16</a>, octave repeating -- is well-represented in 72edo. Note that all the different step sizes are distinguished, except for 13:12 and 14:13 (conflated to 8\72edo, 133.3 cents) and 15:14 and 16:15 (conflated to 7\72edo, 116.7 cents, the generator for miracle temperament).<br />
