11edo provides the same tuning on the [[k*N subgroups|2*11 subgroup]] 2.9.15.7.11.17 as does 22edo, and on this subgroup it [[tempering out|tempers out]] the same [[comma]]s as 22. Also on this subgroup there is an approximation of the 8:9:11:14:15:16:17 [[chord]] and its subchords. Though the error is rather large, this does provide 11 with a variety of chords approximating [[JI]] chords.

11edo has a good approximation of [[9/7]], hence one natural approach to harmony in 11edo is to generate chords from stacks of this interval. Incidentally, correcting the tuning of 9/7 to just tuning and stacking this interval has the beneficial side effect of also improving the tuning of the 17th harmonic to almost exactly just intonation, with an error of only 0.3 cents. It may therefore be worth considering this JI tuning as an alternative to 11edo.

Incidentally, correcting the tuning of 9/7 to just tuning and stacking this interval has the beneficial side effect of also improving the tuning of the 17th harmonic to almost exactly just intonation, with an error of only [[5832/5831|0.3 cents]]. It may therefore be worth considering this JI tuning as an alternative to 11edo.

Being less than twelve, 11edo maps easily to the standard keyboard. The suggested mapping disregards the Ab/G# key, leaving [[Orgone]][7] on the whites. The superfluous Ab can be made a note of [[22edo]], a tuning known as "[[elevenplus]]".
