This provides 29ed12 with a comparatively larger, more diverse palette of [[consonance]]s than pure-octaves 8edo.

A nice subset of 29ed12 is the subset: 1 1 2 2 1 1, which allows all of its intervals to occur at least once between degrees of the scale, but removes the most dissonant intervals above the root, making consonances more easily accessible. It has a vaguely similar feel to the whole tone scale - [[6edo]].


The nearest [[zeta peak index]] tunings to 8edo don't have an interval within 20 cents of [[2/1]], making them unrecognisable as stretched or compressed 8edo but instead more like entirely new scales in their own right.
