360edo provides the optimal patent val in the 11-limit, and otherwise a good tuning in the 13-limit for the [[Hemimage_temperaments#Degrees|degrees temperament]], the 80&140 temperament with period 20. Eliora proposes a 7-limit reenactment temperament for 360edo, defined as 188 & 360 and named after the YouTubers cs188 and radicalfaith360. It has a comma basis 2097152/2083725 and {{Monzo|0, -19, -10, 19}}.

=== As an interval size measure ===
360 is the 13th [[highly composite EDO]], with many proper divisors: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120, 180.
One step of 360edo is known as '''the Dröbisch angle''', being first proposed by Moritz Dröbisch in the 19th century at first merely by the name "angle".

Eliora proposes notating 360edo with calendar dates, Jan 1 being the tonic, Jan 2 being the next step, etc, and each month having even 30 days. The notation is convenient because 1 month in this scenario is equal to 1 semitone, and corresponds to [[12edo]].

Any other notation system involving the number 360 can also be used, such as calling steps degrees, deriving them from Moritz Dröbisch's proposal of calling the step an angle.

360edo is used in the [[wikipedia:Eyeborg|eyeborg]], which maps its scale degrees onto color hues, thus converting color into sound waves. The device was originally intended to help colorblind individuals.
