94edo is a remarkable all-around utility temperament, good from low [[prime limit]] to very high prime limit situations. It is the first equal temperament to be [[consistent]] through the [[23-limit]], and no other equal temperament is so consistent until [[282edo|282]] and [[311edo|311]] make their appearance. | |||
The list of 23-limit commas it tempers out is huge, but it's worth noting that it tempers out [[32805/32768]] and is thus a [[schismatic]] system, that it tempers out [[225/224]] and [[385/384]] and so is a [[marvel]] system, and that it also tempers out [[3125/3087]], [[4000/3969]], [[5120/5103]] and [[540/539]]. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for the rank five temperament tempering out [[275/273]], and for a number of other temperaments, such as [[isis]]. | |||
