=== Division of a thirteenth (e. g. 10/3) into n equal parts ===
{{Editable user page}}
Division of e. g. the 10:3 into equal parts can be conceived of as to directly use this interval as an equivalence, or not. The question of [[equivalence]] has not even been posed yet. The utility of 10:3 or another thirteenth as a base though, is apparent by being the top of the upper structure of jazz voicings. Most importantly, a minor thirteenth is the quadruple of a fourth while a major thirteenth is the triple of a fifth, so diatonic scales will not generate prime edXIIIs though these have 1-3-5-7-10 pentads rather than the tone clusters of an equal division of a (perfect) fourth or fifth. Although they no longer count as equivalent, 2-3 and 4-3 are still as valid suspensions of normal root position pentads as 9-10 and 11-10. Many, though not all, of these scales have a pseudo (false) octave, with various degrees of accuracy.  
The '''equal division of 10/3''' ('''ed10/3''') is a [[tuning]] obtained by dividing the [[10/3|just major thirteenth (10/3)]] into a number of [[equal]] steps.  


Incidentally, one way to treat 10/3 as an equivalence is the use of the 4:5:6:7:10 chord as the fundamental complete sonority in a very similar way to the 4:5:6:(8) chord in meantone. Just as in meantone it takes four 3/2 to get to 5/1, tempering out the comma 81/80. So, doing this yields 9, 12, 21 and 33 tone 3MOS. While the notes are rather farther apart, the scheme is uncannily similar to [[Augmented family|augmented]] temperament. "Macro-augmented" might be a practically perfect term for it if it hasn't been named yet.

The equal division of 10/3 (ed10/3) is a tuning obtained by dividing the just major thirteenth (10/3) into a number of equal steps.

Properties

Division of 10/3 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an equivalence. Many, though not all, ed10/3 scales have a perceptually important false octave, with various degrees of accuracy.

The structural significance of 10/3 or another thirteenth is apparent by being the the top of the upper structure of jazz voicings, as well as a fairly trivial point to split the difference between the tritave and the double octave. 10/3 is also the complete ambitus of three, later five, of the church modes[clarification needed].

One approach to ed10/3 tunings is the use of the 2:3:6 chord as the fundamental complete sonority in a very similar way to the 4:5:6 chord in meantone. Whereas in meantone it takes four 3/2 to get to 5/4, here it takes eight 3/1 to get to 3/2 (tempering out the comma 5000000/4782969 in the 5-limit). This regular temperament yields monolarge mos with 1–12 notes, followed by a 13-note 12L 1s⟨10/3⟩ mos.
