77 tone Equal Temperament

77-tET or 77-EDO divides the octave into 77 steps of size 15.5844 cents each. With fifths less than a cent flat, major thirds a bit over three cents sharp and 7/4s less flat than that, it represents an excellent tuning choice for both valentine, the 31&46 temperament, and starling, the 126/125 planar temperament, giving the optimal patent val for 11-limit valentine and its 13-limit extensions dwynwen and valentino, as well as 11-limit starling and oxpecker temperaments. It also gives the optimal patent val for various members of the unicorn family, with a generator of 4\77 instead of the 5\77 which gives valentine. These are 7-limit alicorn and 11- and 13-limit camahueto.

77et tempers out 32805/32768 in the 5-limit, 126/125, 1029/1024 and 6144/6125 in the 7-limit, 121/120, 176/175, 385/384 and 441/440 in the 11-limit, and 196/195, 351/350, 352/351, 676/675 and 729/728 in the 13-limit.
