The '''9 equal division of 3''', the [[tritave]], divides it into 9 equal steps of size 211.328 [[cent]]s each. It has a decent 7 and an excellent 13, but a 5 which is 39 cents flat; if octaves were added and it was a sixth, it would count as a [[neutral sixth]]. The corresponding interval for [[5/3]] is 845 cents, which is a neutral sixth between [[8/5]] and [[5/3]], which is really more of a [[13/8]], though this is allegedly a no-twos tuning. On the 3.7.13 [[subgroup]] it tempers out [[351/343]] and [[2197/2187]]. 9edt is the third [[The_Riemann_Zeta_Function_and_Tuning#Removing primes|no-twos zeta peak edt]].
{{ED intro}}


Following [[4edt]], this is the next "Lambda" (BP related) equal division of the tritave; in a certain sense analogous to [[7edo]] in diatonic music.
== Theory ==
It has a decent seventh harmonic ([[7/1]]) which is 12.4¢ sharp, and an excellent [[13/1]] inherited from [[3edt]] which is only 2.6{{c}} flat. However, the [[5/1]] is 39{{c}} flat, thus 13 steps of 9edt (approximating the 5/1) can be described as a neutral seventeenth—or if tritave-reduced to 4 steps, a neutral sixth (approximating the 5/3). This neutral sixth has a size of 845{{c}}, which is between [[8/5]] and [[5/3]]; if this interval is also taken as an approximation to [[13/8]], it would temper out [[40/39]]—making 9edt an exotemperament in the 8.3.5.13 subgroup. Though, 9edt is more well behaved on the 3.7.13 [[subgroup]], of which it tempers out [[351/343]] and [[2197/2187]].  


This scale is also related to [[17edo]] by which it may be approximated by playing every third step (the 17edo non-octave whole-tone scale), the discrepancy is only about four cents when it gets to [[3/1]].
Following [[4edt]], this is the next edt that supports [[BPS]] temperament. For small edts, this property is virtually the same as supporting a [[4L 5s (3/1-equivalent)|3/1-equivalent "lambda" scale]], of which 9edt offers the "equalized" interpretation of {{nowrap|L {{=}} s}}, analogous to [[7edo]] in diatonic ([[5L 2s]]) music.
 
9edt is the third [[the Riemann zeta function and tuning#Removing primes|no-twos zeta peak edt]].
