[[12edo]] is about 108.7766edz, and any EDO can be converted to an EDZ by multiplying the number by <math>\tfrac{2\pi}{\ln(2)}</math>. More generally, an equal division of an interval ''x'' can be expressed as an EDZ via <math>\tfrac{2\pi}{\ln(x)}</math>. For an equal tuning expressed as an [[EDN|equal division of the natave]] (''e''), this reduces to a multiplication by <math>2\pi</math>; in other words, the zetave is the result of stacking <math>2\pi</math> [[natave|nataves]]. The appearance of the zetave in the zeta function's usage in tuning suggests that it has a natural relation to [[equal-step tuning]]s.

It is extremely well-approximated by [[31edo]]: 281 steps of 31edo is 10877.419{{c}}, ~~which is flat of~~ <math>e^{2\pi}</math> by only 0.245{{c}}, ~~which corresponds to~~ 1 in 44,400 ~~or 0.00225%~~.

It is extremely well-approximated by [[31edo]]: 281 steps of 31edo is 10877.419{{c}}, differing from <math>e^{2\pi}</math> by only 0.245{{c}} (0.00225%, or 1 in 44,400).
