12edo offers very good approximations to intervals in the 2.3.17.19 subgroup. This indicates one way to use 12edo that deviates from common-practice harmony; for instance the cluster chord 8:17:36:76 is well represented.

12edo intervals and notes have standard names from classical music theory. This classical notation system, which was in use before 12edo with other tuning systems based on chains of fifths, is sometimes called the [[chain-of-fifths notation]] or extended Pythagorean notation.

12et (12f val) is lower in relative error than any previous equal temperaments in the 3-, 5-, 7-, 11-, 13-, and 19-limit. The next ETs doing better in those subgroups are 41, 19, 19, 22, 19/19e, and 19egh, respectively. 12et is even more prominent in the 2.3.5.7.17.19 subgroup, and the next ET that does this better is 72.
