The 27-odd-limit is the set of all rational intervals for which neither the numerator nor the denominator of the frequency ratio exceeds 27, once all powers of 2 are removed. To the 25-odd-limit, it adds 9 interval pairs involving 27.

Below is a list of all octave-reduced intervals in the 27-odd-limit.

The smallest equal division of the octave which is consistent in the 27-odd-limit is 282edo (by virtue of it being consistent through the 29-odd limit); that which is distinctly consistent in the same is 388edo.
