As an equal temperament, it [[tempering out|tempers out]] the {{monzo| 485 -306 }} ([[sasktel comma]]) in the 3-limit, and in the 5-limit {{monzo| 1 -27 18 }} ([[ennealimma]]), {{monzo| -52 -17 34 }} ([[septendecima]]), {{monzo| -53 10 16 }} ([[kwazy comma]]), {{monzo| 54 -37 2 }} ([[monzisma]]), {{monzo| -107 47 14 }} (fortune comma), and {{monzo| 161 -84 -12 }} ([[atom]]). In the 7-limit it tempers out [[2401/2400]] and [[4375/4374]], so that it [[support]]s the [[ennealimmal]] temperament, and in fact provides the [[optimal patent val]] for ennealimmal. The 7-limit val for 612 can be characterized as the ennealimmal commas plus the kwazy comma. In the 11-limit, it tempers out [[3025/3024]] and [[9801/9800]], so that 612 supports the [[hemiennealimmal]] temperament. In the 13-limit, it tempers [[2200/2197]] and [[4096/4095]].

The 612edo has been proposed as the logarithmic [[interval size measure]] '''skisma''' (or '''sk'''), since one step is nearly the same size as the [[schisma]] (32805/32768), 1/12 of a [[Pythagorean comma]] or 1/11 of a [[syntonic comma]]. Since 612 is divisible by {{EDOs| 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 17, 18, 34, 36, 51, 68, 102, 153, 204 and 306 }}, it can readily express the step sizes of the 12, 17, 34, and 68 divisions. A table of intervals approximated by 612 can be found under [[Table of 612edo intervals]].
