58et can also be detempered to [[semihemi]] ({{nowrap| 58 & 140 }}), [[supers]] ({{nowrap| 58 & 152 }}), [[condor]] ({{nowrap| 58 & 159 }}), and [[eagle]] ({{nowrap| 58 & 212 }}). | 58et can also be detempered to [[semihemi]] ({{nowrap| 58 & 140 }}), [[supers]] ({{nowrap| 58 & 152 }}), [[condor]] ({{nowrap| 58 & 159 }}), and [[eagle]] ({{nowrap| 58 & 212 }}). | ||
== Octave stretch or compression == | |||
58edo's approximations of harmonics 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13 can all be improved if slightly [[stretched and compressed tuning|compressing the octave]] is acceptable, using tunings such as [[92edt]] or [[150ed6]]. | |||
What follows is a comparison of stretched- and compressed-octave 58edo tunings. | |||
; [[zpi|288zpi]] | |||
* Step size: 20.736{{c}}, octave size: 1202.69{{c}} | |||
Stretching the octave of 58edo by around 2.5{{c}} results in improved primes 11, 13, 19 and 23, but worse primes 2, 3, 5, 7 and 17. This approximates all harmonics up to 16 within 9.98{{c}}. The tuning 288zpi does this. | |||

* Step size: 20.690{{c}}, octave size: 1200.00{{c}} | |||
Pure-octaves 58edo approximates all harmonics up to 16 within 8.28{{c}}. | |||

; [[150ed6]] | |||
* Step size: 20.680{{c}}, octave size: 1199.42{{c}} | |||
Compressing the octave of 58edo by around half a cent results in improved primes 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13 but a worse prime 2. This approximates all harmonics up to 16 within 6.02{{c}}. The tuning 150ed6 does this. | |||
{{Harmonics in equal|150|6|1|intervals=integer|columns=11|collapsed=true|title=Approximation of harmonics in 150ed6}} | |||

; [[92edt]] | |||
* Step size: 20.673{{c}}, octave size: 1199.06{{c}} | |||
Compressing the octave of 58edo by around 1{{c}} results in improved primes 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13, but a worse prime 2. This approximates all harmonics up to 16 within 4.60{{c}}. The tuning 92edt does this. | |||

; [[zpi|289zpi]] / [[WE|58et, 7-limit WE tuning]] | |||
* Step size: 20.666{{c}}, octave size: 1198.63{{c}} | |||
Compressing the octave of 58edo by just under 1.5{{c}} results in improved primes 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13, but a worse prime 2. This approximates all harmonics up to 16 within 5.49{{c}}. Its 7-limit WE tuning and 7-limit [[TE]] tuning both do this. The tuning 289zpi also does this, its octave differing from 7-limit WE by only 0.06{{c}}. | |||

* Step size: 20.663{{c}}, octave size: 1198.45{{c}} | |||
Compressing the octave of 58edo by just over 1.5{{c}} results in improved primes 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13, but a worse prime 2. This approximates all harmonics up to 16 within 6.18{{c}}. Its 13-limit WE tuning and 13-limit [[TE]] tuning both do this. | |||
