Theory

742edo is a very strong 19-limit system and a zeta peak edo, and is distinctly consistent in the 21-odd-limit. The equal temperament tempers out the vishnuzma and the fortune comma in the 5-limit, supporting vishnu and fortune; 2401/2400 in the 7-limit, 9801/9800 in the 11-limit, 4096/4095, 6656/6655, 10648/10647 in the 13-limit, 1701/1700, 2058/2057, 2601/2600, 4914/4913, 5832/5831 in the 17-limit, 2376/2375, 2432/2431, 2926/2925, 3136/3135, 4200/4199, 5776/5775, 5929/5928, 5985/5984, 6860/6859 in the 19-limit.

Subsets and supersets

Since 742 factors into 2 × 7 × 53, 742edo has subset edos 2, 7, 14, 53, 106, and 371, of which 7edo, 14edo and 53edo are very notable. It supports silicon (224 & 518) with period 14 in the 13-limit, and iodine (159 & 583f) with period 53 in the 17-limit.

  • 742et has a lower 19-limit relative error than any previous equal temperaments. It is only bettered by 935 in terms of absolute error, and by 1178 in terms of relative error.
  • 742et (742i val) is also notable in the 17- and 23-limit, where it has lower absolute errors than any previous equal temperaments. In the 17-limit it beats 581 and is bettered by 764; in the 23-limit it beats 718 and is bettered by 814.
