Theory
1944edo is consistent in the 5-limit to which it provides good approximation, and a near-perfect 15/8, but it is only consistent that far. In the 5-limit, it does temper out the luna comma, [38 -2 -15⟩. In the 1944d val in the 7-limit, it is a landscape system, tempering out 250047/250000, and as a consequence it tunes the 24th-octave chromium temperament.
In higher limits, 1944edo is a tuning for the Jamala temperament in the 2.5.11.13.19.41.47 subgroup, for which 1944edo provides good approximation (except for the 13th harmonic) and which is named after an artist who performed a song about the same year as the edo number. Overall, the best subgroup for 1944edo is 2.3.5.11.17.19.29.31.41.47.
