The '''94 equal temperament''', often abbreviated '''94-tET''', '''94-[[EDO]]''', or '''94-ET''', is the scale derived by dividing the [[octave]] into 94 equally-sized steps, where each step represents a frequency ratio of 12.766 [[cent]]s. It 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]] though the [[23-limit]], and no other equal temperament is so consistent until 282 and 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]].

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.


Also, see the [[Table of 94edo intervals]].

Below are some 23-limit temperaments supported by 94et. It might be noted that 94, a very good tuning for [[Garibaldi_temperament|garibaldi temperament]], shows us how to extend it to the 23-limit.
