=== Prime harmonics ===
Although not [[consistent]], it performs quite well in very high prime limits. It has unambiguous mappings for all prime harmonics up to ''113'', with the sole exceptions of 23, 71, 89, and 103, making a great [[#Ringer 43|Ringer scale]]. Mappings for composite harmonics and ratios between these prime harmonics can then be derived from those for the primes themselves, allowing for an almost-complete version of the first 32 harmonics in the harmonic series, although the limited consistency will give some unusual results. Indeed, the step size of 43edo is very close to the [[64/63|septimal comma (64/63)]], while two steps is close to [[32/31]], and four steps to [[16/15]].
