Theory
57edo is an excellent tuning for the 2.5/3.7.11.13.17.19 just intonation subgroup. One way to describe 57edo is that it has a 5-limit part consisting of three rings of 19edo, plus a no-threes no-fives part which is much more accurate.
Using the full prime-limit patent val, the equal temperament tempers out 81/80, 1029/1024, and 3125/3072 in the 7-limit; and 99/98, 385/384, 441/440, and 625/616 in the 11-limit. A good generator to exploit the 2.5/3.7.11.13.17.19 aspect of 57 is the approximate 11/8, which is 26\57. This gives the 19-limit 46 & 57 temperament heinz. It can also be used to tune mothra as well as trismegistus.

Notation
Sagittal notation
In the following diagrams, a sagittal symbol followed by an equals sign (=) means that the following comma is the symbol's primary comma (the comma it exactly represents in JI), while an approximately equals sign (≈) means it is a secondary comma (a comma it approximately represents in JI). In both cases the symbol exactly represents the tempered version of the comma in this EDO.
This notation uses the same sagittal sequence as EDOs 50, 64, and 71b, and is a superset of the notation for 19-EDO.
