This edo does not have a perfect fifth, but it does have 2 flavors of thirds... kind of. Because 8 is divisible by 4, it contains the 300¢ minor third, but it also includes a 450¢ interval that could be used either as an ultramajor third or a very flat fourth. This dual purpose actually makes it a pretty interesting interval to work with harmonically. This edo also has a neutral second, but one that much more closely approximates [[12/11]] than 7edo, giving melodies a pretty distinct neutral sound. This edo actually works surprisingly well on organ, producing a very sinister, foreboding sound. Overall, a decent edo to work in but one that I don't find myself using often.
