26edt divides the tritave ([[3/1]]) into 26 equal parts of 73.152 cents each, corresponding to 16.404[[edo]]. It is [[contorted]] in the 7-limit, tempering out the same commas, [[245/243]] and [[3125/3087]], as [[13edt]]. In the 11-limit it tempers out 125/121 and 3087/3025, in the 13-limit 175/169, 147/143, and 847/845, and in the 17-limit 119/117. It is the seventh [[The_Riemann_Zeta_Function_and_Tuning#Removing prime|zeta peak tritave division]].

A reason to double 13edt to 26edt is to approximate the 8th, 13th, 17th, 20th, and 22nd harmonics particularly well {{Dubious}}. Moreover, it has an exaggerated diatonic scale with 11:16:21 supermajor triads, though only the 16:11 is particularly just due to its best 16 still being 28.04 cents sharp, or just about as bad as the 25 of 12edo (which is 27.373 cents sharp, an essentially just 100:63).

While retaining 13edt's mapping of primes 3, 5, and 7, 26edt adds an accurate prime 17 to the mix, tempering out [[2025/2023]] to split the BPS generator of [[9/7]] into two intervals of [[17/15]]. This 17/15 generates [[Dubhe]] temperament and a [[8L 1s (3/1-equivalent)|8L 1s]] MOS scale that can be used as a simple traversal of 26edt. Among the 3.5.7.17 [[subgroup]] intervals, the accuracy of [[21/17]] should be highlighted, forming a 21-strong [[consistent circle]] that traverses the edt.

Additionally, while still far from perfect, 26edt does slightly improve upon 13edt's approximation of harmonics 11 and 13, which turns out to be sufficient to allow 26edt to be [[consistent]] to the no-twos 21-[[odd limit]], and is in fact the first edt to achieve this.

26edt divides the tritave (3/1) into 26 equal parts of 73.152 cents each, corresponding to 16.404edo. It is contorted in the 7-limit, tempering out the same commas, 245/243 and 3125/3087, as 13edt. In the 11-limit it tempers out 125/121 and 3087/3025, in the 13-limit 175/169, 147/143, and 847/845, and in the 17-limit 119/117. It is the seventh zeta peak tritave division.

A reason to double 13edt to 26edt is to approximate the 8th, 13th, 17th, 20th, and 22nd harmonics particularly well[dubiousdiscuss]. Moreover, it has an exaggerated diatonic scale with 11:16:21 supermajor triads, though only the 16:11 is particularly just due to its best 16 still being 28.04 cents sharp, or just about as bad as the 25 of 12edo (which is 27.373 cents sharp, an essentially just 100:63).

Theory

While retaining 13edt's mapping of primes 3, 5, and 7, 26edt adds an accurate prime 17 to the mix, tempering out 2025/2023 to split the Bohlen−Pierce−Stearns generator of 9/7 into two intervals of 17/15. This 17/15 generates Dubhe temperament and MOS scales of Template:Sl and Template:Sl that can be used as a simple traversal of 26edt. Among the 3.5.7.17 subgroup intervals, the accuracy of 21/17 should be highlighted, forming a 21-strong consistent circle that traverses the edt.

Additionally, while still far from perfect, 26edt does slightly improve upon 13edt's approximation of harmonics 11 and 13, which turns out to be sufficient to allow 26edt to be consistent to the no-twos 21-odd limit, and is in fact the first edt to achieve this.

Connection to 26edo

It is a weird coincidence [dubiousdiscuss] how 26edt intones many 26edo intervals within plus or minus 6.5 cents when it is supposed to have nothing to do with this other tuning:

26edt 26edo Delta
365.761 369.231 −3.470

etc.
