11edt means the division of 3, the tritave, into 11 equal parts of 175.905 cents each, corresponding to 6.940 edo. It can therefore be seen as a very stretched version of [[7edo|7edo]], with octaves sharpened by ten and a third cents. The octave stretching makes the fifth in better tune, and of course the twelfth is the pure 3/1 tritave.
{{EDO intro}}


From a no-two point of view, it tempers out 49/45 and 15625/15309 in the 7-limit and 35/33 and 77/75 in the 11-limit.
== Theory ==


== Intervals ==
From a no-two point of view, 11edt has a [[5/3]] major sixth that is 19.8 cents flat. However, 11edt has an extremely inaccurate seventh harmonic [[7/1]], which is off by almost half a step (or about a semitone), which causes it to temper out [[49/45]] in the 7-limit. 11edt is at the extreme end of [[arcturus]] temperament, defined by tempering out [[15625/15309]] in the 3.5.7 subgroup. It gives an equalized interpretation for the [[9L 2s (3/1-equivalent)|sub-arcturus]] [[MOS]] scale.
 
The 11th harmonic, [[11/1]], only 1.6 cents flat, is very close to just. By exploiting the badly tuned seventh harmonic, 11edt tempers out [[35/33]] and [[77/75]] in the 11-limit. In the 3.5.11 subgroup, it tempers out [[125/121]].
 
=== Relation to edos ===
11edt can be seen as a very stretched version of [[7edo]], with octaves sharpened by 10.3 cents. The octave stretching makes the [[3/2]] perfect fifth in better tune, while preserving a just [[3/1]] tritave.
