EDOs < 12 not included as usually better conceptualised in a superset of that EDO and because otherwise I'd list too many consecutive EDOs.<br/> | EDOs < 12 not included as usually better conceptualised in a superset of that EDO and because otherwise I'd list too many consecutive EDOs.<br/> | ||
Favourite EDOs best to worst, not listed = even worse, my opinion obviously, also my opinions are still in development about many of these:<br/> | Favourite EDOs best to worst, not listed = even worse, my opinion obviously, also my opinions are still in development about many of these:<br/> | ||
* 12: [[Pythagorean tuning|Pythagorean]] [[Meantone]]: the musical language. From a circle-of-nths relative-consistency point of view, it is very strong in the 2.3.5.19(.17) subgroup. Not to be underestimated. Has hints of the 7-limit through the inaccuracy of its 5. Has been called "the [[311edo|EDO chosen by God]]" by some - I'm definitely inclined to agree in the context of casual non-xen Western music. | * 12: [[Pythagorean tuning|Pythagorean]] [[Meantone]]: the musical language.

* 13: Distorted 12. As such, almost xenharmonic by definition, due to maximising opportunities for alienness. The next good EDO after 12. Dreamy scales that I like a lot but I'm not sure about if that alone means they're good to use. I hope it does as 13 has huge potential if so. | * 13: Distorted 12.

* 16: The first interesting superset of 4 other than 12. Also a [[Pelogic_family#Mavila|mavila]] tuning, not that I like Mavila too much. | * 16: The first interesting superset of 4 other than 12. Also a [[Pelogic_family#Mavila|mavila]] tuning, not that I like Mavila too much. | ||
