As an equal temperament, 224et [[tempering out]] [[32805/32768]] in the [[5-limit]]; [[4375/4374]], [[16875/16807]] and [[65625/65536]] in the [[7-limit]]; [[540/539]], 1375/1372, [[4000/3993]] and notably, the [[quartisma]] in the [[11-limit]]; and [[625/624]], [[729/728]], [[1575/1573]] and [[2200/2197]] in the [[13-limit]], leading to an abundance of precisely-tuned [[essentially tempered chord]]s, including [[swetismic chords]], [[squbemic chords]], and [[petrmic chords]] in the 13-odd-limit, in addition to [[nicolic chords]] in the [[15-odd-limit]]. It defines the [[optimal patent val]] for the [[octoid]] in the 7-, 11- and 13-limit, and for [[mirkwai]], the 7-limit [[planar temperament]] tempering out 16875/16807. It also provides an excellent tuning for [[indra]] and [[shibi]] temperaments. [[217edo]], only a bit smaller, has a worse 13-limit, but it achieves a much higher [[consistency limit]], almost [[31-odd-limit|31-odd]].

224edo tempers the [[syntonic comma]] to 1/56th of the octave (4 steps) and as a corollary supports the [[barium]] temperament. As a consequence of this, the 224bb val (flattening the fifth by one step) is a tuning for [[meantone]] and is very close (0.15 cents) to the [[quarter-comma meantone]] fifth. The generator however reduces to [[112edo]], being 65\112.
