Theory

257edo is inconsistent to the 5-limit and higher limit, with significant errors on harmonics 3, 5, 7, and 9.

In the 7-limit, there is a number of mappings to be considered. First is the 257 407 597 721] (patent val), where 257edo tempers out 393216/390625 (Würschmidt comma) in the 5-limit and 1029/1024, 177147/175000, and 393216/390625 in the 7-limit. Using the 257bd val, 257 408 597 722], it tempers out 15625/15552 (kleisma) in the 5-limit; 4000/3969, 6144/6125, and 40353607/39858075 in the 7-limit.

Using the 257c val, [257 407 596 721 it tempers out 34171875/33554432 (ampersand comma) and 762939453125/753145430616 (maja comma) in the 5-limit; 225/224, 1029/1024, and 854492187500/847288609443 in the 7-limit; 243/242, 385/384, 441/440, and 152587890625/148550704533 in the 11-limit, providing for the 11-limit miracle temperament. Using the 257d val, [257 407 597 722 it tempers out 1728/1715, 413343/409600, and 703125/702464 in the 7-limit.

In higher limits, 257edo is a strong 2.11.13.15.27 subgroup tuning, and it is overall good at the 2.11.13.15.27.37.41.49.53.59.67 subgroup. A comma basis for the 2.11.13.15.27 subgroup is {4225/4224, 256000/255879, 225000/224939, 4159375/4153344}.
