270edo's approximation to higher harmonics, starting from 29, demonstrates a somewhat monotonous sharp tendency. This allows it to be considered as a temperament of very high limits – specifically the [[53-limit]]. In fact, 270edo is the first edo to be [[diamond monotone|monotonic]] in the 47-odd-limit, using the 270i val with the sharp mapping of 23. | 270edo's approximation to higher harmonics, starting from 29, demonstrates a somewhat monotonous sharp tendency.

For primes 37 and 41, this means the pairs [[37/36]] and [[38/37]], and the pairs [[41/40]] and [[42/41]], are distinct, observing [[1369/1368]] ({{S|37}}) and [[1681/1680]] ({{S|41}}). In fact 38/37, [[39/38]], [[40/39]], and 41/40 are tempered together. Prime 43 then fits naturally with 42/41, [[43/42]], [[44/43]], and [[45/44]] all tempered together, while 47 may be added such that [[48/47]] is tempered together with [[49/48]], [[50/49]], and [[51/50]]. | For primes 37 and 41, this means the pairs [[37/36]] and [[38/37]], and the pairs [[41/40]] and [[42/41]], are distinct, observing [[1369/1368]] ({{S|37}}) and [[1681/1680]] ({{S|41}}). In fact 38/37, [[39/38]], [[40/39]], and 41/40 are tempered together. The sharp mapping for prime 23 is required here so that [[37/33]] and [[46/41]] are not tuned in inverse order. Prime 43 then fits naturally with 42/41, [[43/42]], [[44/43]], and [[45/44]] all tempered together, while 47 may be added such that [[48/47]] is tempered together with [[49/48]], [[50/49]], and [[51/50]]. Again the sharp mapping for prime 23 is required so that [[46/45]] is tempered together with 45/44 and that [[47/46]] is tempered together with 48/47. Prime 53, if desired, is tuned with [[51/50]]~[[53/52]] and [[52/51]]~[[54/53]], so monotonicity is unavoidably lost in the 53-odd-limit. | ||
