8edo forms an odd and even pitch set of two diminished seventh chords, which when used in combination yield dissonance. The system has been described as a "barbaric" harmonic system; even so, it does a good job representing the [[just intonation subgroup]]s 2.11/3.13/5, with good intervals of [[13/10]] and an excellent version of [[11/6]]. | 8edo forms an odd and even pitch set of two diminished seventh chords, which when used in combination yield dissonance.
