Original Wikitext content:
The //99 equal temperament//, often abbreviated 99-tET, 99-EDO, or 99-ET, is the scale derived by dividing the octave into 99 equally-sized steps, where each step represents a frequency ratio of 12.1212 cents. It is a very strong 7-limit (and 9 odd limit) temperament, but extending it to the 11-limit requires choosing which mapping one wants to use, as both are nearly equally far of the mark. It tempers out 3136/3125, 5120/5103, 6144/6125, 2401/2400 and 4375/4374, and supports hemififths, amity, parakleismic, hemiwuerschmidt and ennealimmal temperaments. It has a sound defined by the slight sharpness (1.075, 1.565, 0.871 cents) of its 3, 5, and 7.
