Systems that just fulfill level 1 are still generally considered bad compromises. An additional quite basic requirement for a more accurate maqam system is the availability of two kinds of neutral seconds, a smaller one for the Bayati tetrachord and a larger one for the Rast tetrachord. Moreover, the major second whould preferably be a "major" wholetone, while the minor second should be a "small" semitone - as a consequence, the wholetone is to be divided into a smaller semitone (limma) and a larger one (apotome) | Systems that just fulfill level 1 are still generally considered bad compromises.

Important EDOs that meet these requirements are [[53edo]] and [[72edo]]. Both of these have found a certain dissemination in middle-eastern music. | Important EDOs that meet these requirements are [[53edo]] and [[72edo]].
