If structural beating does exist, then the greatest determining factor of a scale's structural beating will be the [[interval region]] of the scale's period. | If structural beating does exist, then the greatest determining factor of a scale's structural beating will be the [[interval region]] of the scale's period. | ||
If the equivalence is considered to be the octave, 2/1, the perfect eighth, then one would expect equal divisions of sevenths or ninths to have the most vivid structural beating. That would include tunings like [[ed7/4]]s, [[ed16/9]]s, [[ed15/8]]s, [[phi to the phi|edφ<sup>φ</sup>s]], [[ed11/5]]s & [[ed9/4]]s. | If the equivalence is considered to be the octave, 2/1, the perfect eighth, then one would expect equal divisions of sevenths or ninths to have the most vivid structural beating.

If the equivalence is considered to be the tritave, 3/1, the perfect twelfth, then one would expect equal divisions of elevenths or thirteenths to have the most vivid structural beating. That would include tunings like [[ed8/3]]s, [[EDN]]s, [[ed11/4]]s, [[acoustic pi|ed(pi)s]], [[ed13/4]]s & [[ed10/3]]s. | If the equivalence is considered to be the tritave, 3/1, the perfect twelfth, then one would expect equal divisions of elevenths or thirteenths to have the most vivid structural beating.

If the equivalence is considered to be the double octave, 4/1, the perfect fifteenth, then one would expect equal divisions of fourteenths or sixteenths to have the most vivid structural beating.

If the equivalence is considered to be the pentave, 5/1, the classic major seventeenth, then one would expect equal divisions of sixteenths or eighteenths to have the most vivid structural beating.
