While even advocates of less-common [[edo]]s can struggle to find something about 32edo worth noting, it does provide an excellent tuning for the [[sixix]] temperament, which [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[5-limit]] sixix comma, [[3125/2916]], using its 9\32 generator of size 337.5 cents. [[Petr Pařízek]]'s preferred generator for sixix is (128/15)<sup>(1/11)</sup>, which is 337.430 cents and which gives equal error to fifths and major thirds, so 32edo does sixix about as well as sixix can be done. It also can be used (with the 9\32 generator) to tune [[mohavila]], an 11-limit temperament which does not temper out sixix. | While even advocates of less-common [[edo]]s can struggle to find something about 32edo worth noting, it does provide an excellent tuning for the [[sixix]] temperament, which [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[5-limit]] sixix comma, [[3125/2916]], using its 9\32 generator of size 337.5 cents.
