By [[Tom Winspear]], utilizing the Accidents shown below. Left: Chain of 4ths/5ths , Right: Chromatic view. Black font represents the '6 accidentals deep' notation that covers the chromatic scale with enharmonics only across EF & BC. White text displays deep enharmonics in the ambiguous infrared & ultraviolet area of the colour notation.

'''81edo''' divides the octave into 81 steps of 14.815 [[cent]]s each. It is notable as a tuning for [[meantone family|meantone]] and related temperaments and is the [[optimal patent val]] for a number of them. In particular it is the optimal patent val for 5-limit meantone, 7-limit meantone, 11-limit meanpop, 13-limit meanpop, and the rank three temperament [[Didymus rank three family|erato]]. The electronic music pioneer [https://web.archive.org/web/20120211182601/http://daphneoram.org/2012/01/13/letter-from-yehudi-menuhin/ Daphne Oram] was interested in 81edo.

The chromatic scale can be notated utilizing only six accidentals in either direction - the rest are for enharmonics.
