988edo provides excellent tuning for the 2, 3, 5, 11, 13, 19, 37, 43, 47, 53, and 59th harmonics, making a strong higher-limit system. It is double the famous [[494edo]], and with the same mapping for the 17-limit. If considered in the 19-limit, it is basically a spicy 494edo with the 19th harmonic. The comma basis for such regular temperament is 1445/1444, 1716/1715, 2601/2600, 3025/3024, 4225/4224, 10830/10829, 297440/297381. | 988edo provides excellent tuning for the 2, 3, 5, 11, 13, 19, 37, 43, 47, 53, and 59th harmonics, making a strong higher-limit system.
