Division of the 11th harmonic into 42 equal parts (42ED11) is related to 12 EDO, but with the 11/1 rather than the 2/1 being just. The octave is about 13.9092 cents compressed and the step size is about 98.8409 cents. It is consistent to the 11-integer-limit, but not to the 12-integer-limit. In comparison, 12EDO is only consistent up to the 10-integer-limit.

Regular temperaments

42ED11 can also be thought of as a generator of the 11-limit temperament which tempers out 100/99, 225/224, and 85184/84035, which is a cluster temperament with 12 clusters of notes in an octave (quintapole temperament, 12&85). Alternative 12&97 temperament can also be used, which tempers out 100/99, 245/242, and 458752/455625 in the 11-limit.
