Theory
In the 13-limit it is the optimal patent val for the rank five temperament tempering out 144/143.
Orwell
84edo is where the orwell temperament takes its name from, since the generator of 7/6 is equal to 19 steps of the EDO, referencing the book 1984.
From a regular temperament perspective, orwell in 84edo comes in two varieties - the 84e val ⟨84 133 195 236 290], supporting the original orwell, and its patent val ⟨84 133 195 236 291] representing newspeak. 84edo orwell offers MOS of size 9, 13, 22, and 31, of which the 31 note scale is the maximum evenness scale.
Other
84edo is a significantly composite number, with divisors 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 84. Being a small multiple of 12, it tempres out the Pythagorean comma, thus supporting period-12 temperament compton. Being a small multiple of 28, it tempers out the oquatonic comma, which maps 5/4 to 9\28.Script error: No such module "primes_in_edo".
Table of intervals
For this table, the notation of Orwell[9] from the 4L 5s page is taken. Notes are denoted as LsLsLsLss = JKLMNOPQRJ, and raising and lowering by a chroma (L − s), 3 steps in this instance, is denoted by & "amp" and @ "at".
