293edo does not approximate prime harmonics well all the way into the 41st, unless 30% errors are considered "well", in which case it equally represents all of them. The first harmonic that it approximates within 1 standard deviation of one step is 43rd, which is 10% flat compared to the just intonated interval.
293edo does not approximate [[prime harmonic]]s well all the way into the 41st, with none approximated within 30% error. The first harmonic that it approximates well is the 43rd, which is 10% flat compared to the just intonated interval. As such, it is only [[consistent]] to the [[5-odd-limit]].


Nonetheless, it is [[consistent]] in the 5-limit, where it tempers out the [[parakleisma]] and {{monzo| -40 15 7 }}. 293edo also tempers out the [[marvel comma]] on the patent val in the 7-limit.  
Using the [[patent val]], the equal temperament [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[parakleisma]] and {{monzo| -40 15 7 }}. It also tempers out the [[marvel comma]] in the 7-limit.  


293bb val, with 170\293 fifth, is an optimal tuning for the meantone temperament.  
The 293bb val, with 170\293 fifth, is a good tuning for the meantone temperament.  


When it comes to the intervals that are not octave-reduced prime harmonics, some which are well-approximated are [[6/5]], [[11/7]], [[17/11]], [[19/17]], [[24/23]], [[25/17]], [[25/19]], and respectively their octave inversions. [[21/16]], which is a composite octave-reduced harmonic, is also well represented. These numbers are related to poor approximation of prime harmonics by cancelling out of the errors. For example, 19th and 17th harmoincs have +36 and +37 error respectively, which together cancels out to 1.

One step of 293edo is at the edge of human pitch perception of 3.5 cents. When combined with low harmonicity, this opens 293edo to a wide range of interpretations.
One step of 293edo is at the edge of human pitch perception of 3.5 cents. When combined with low harmonicity, this opens 293edo to a wide range of interpretations. For example, 293edo also can be interpreted as a dual-interval tuning, with ''two notes'' instead of one assigned to a particular interval.

=== Relation to a calendar reform ===
The 33L 19s [[Maximal evenness|maximally even]] scale of 293edo has a real life application – it is a leap year pattern of a proposed calendar. It employs 62\293 as a generator, described as "accumulator" by the creator of the calendar himself. Likewise, a 71-note cycle with 260\293 generator can be constructed by analogy.
 
The corresponding rank two temperament is therefore called [[Symmetry454]].
