74edo is most notable as a [[meantone]] tuning, [[tempering out]] [[81/80]] in the [[5-limit]]; [[126/125]] and [[225/224]] in the [[7-limit]]; [[99/98]], [[176/175]] and [[441/440]] in the [[11-limit]]; and [[144/143]] and [[847/845]] in the [[13-limit]]. Discarding 847/845 from that gives the 13-limit meantone extension [[grosstone]], for which 74edo gives the [[optimal patent val]]; and discarding 144/143 gives [[semimeantone]], a 13-limit 62 & 74 temperament with half-octave period and two parallel tracks of meantone.

74edo tunes [[harmonic]] [[11/1|11]] only 1/30 of a cent sharp, and [[13/1|13]] 2.7 cents sharp, making it a distinctly interesting choice for higher-limit meantone.
