42edo is on the [[optimal ET sequence]] of the [[Augmented family#eugene|eugene]], [[joan]], [[lemba]], [[neutron]], [[qeema]], [[seville]], [[sevond]], [[skateboard]], [[tritikleismic]] and [[vines]] temperaments.

42edo is a diatonic edo because its 5th falls between 4\7 = 686¢ and 3\5 = 720¢. 42edo is one of the most difficult diatonic edos to notate, because no other diatonic edo's 5th is as sharp (see [[47edo]] for the opposite extreme).

While not an accurate tuning on the full [[7-limit]], 42edo does an excellent job on the 2.9.15.7.33.39 [[k*N subgroups|2*42 subgroup]], having the same tuning on it as does [[84edo]]. On this subgroup 42 has the same [[comma]]s as 84.
