In music, '''88 equal temperament''' is the scale derived by dividing the octave into 88 equally large steps, 13.6363 [[cent|cent]]s in size. Using two different approximations to the perfect fifth (one of 51 steps and one of 52 steps), it is compatible with both [[Meantone|meantone temperament]] and the particular variety of [[Superpyth|superpyth]] temperament(s) supported by [[22edo|22 equal temperament]], respectively. The meantone fifth is 0.0384 cents flatter than that of [[Lucy_Tuning|Lucy Tuning]] and, thus, audibly indistinguishable from it. It also gives the [[Optimal_patent_val|optimal patent val]] for the 11-limit [[Meantone_family|mothra]] and [[Didymus_rank_three_family|euterpe]] temperaments.
