| ← 495edo | 496edo | 497edo → |
496edo is enfactored in the 11-limit, with the same tuning as 248edo, but the patent vals differ on the mapping for 13. As such, in the 11-limit it supports a compound of two chains of 11-limit bischismic temperaments. In the 13-limit patent val, it tempers out 4225/4224.
496edo is good with the 2.3.11.19 subgroup. For higher limits, it has good approximations of 31, 37, and 47. In the 2.3.11.19 subgroup, it tempers out 131072/131043.
