The '''94 equal | The '''94 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''94edo'''), or the '''94(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''94tet''', '''94et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, results from dividing the [[octave]] into 94 [[equal]]ly-sized steps, where each step is 12.766 [[cent]]s. | ||

94edo is a remarkable all-around utility | 94edo is a remarkable all-around utility tuning system, good from low [[prime limit]] to very high prime limit situations. It is the first edo to be [[consistent]] through the [[23-odd-limit]], and no other edo 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 | The list of 23-limit commas it tempers out is huge, but it is 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-5 temperament tempering out [[275/273]], and for a number of other temperaments, such as [[isis]]. | ||
