| '''EDONOI''' is short for "equal divisions of non-octave intervals".
| | #redirect [[Equal-step tuning#Edonoi]] |

| Examples include the equal-tempered [[BP|Bohlen-Pierce scale]] (a.k.a. the 13th root of 3), [[Carlos Alpha]], [[Carlos Beta]], [[Carlos Gamma]], the [[19ED3|19th root of 3]], the [[6edf|6th root of 3:2]] , [[88cET]] and the [[square root of 13 over 10|square root of 13:10]] .

| Some EDONOI contain an interval close to a 2:1 that might function like a stretched or squashed octave. They can thus be considered variations on [[EDO]]s.
| |
| | |
| Other EDONOI contain no approximation of an octave or a compound octave (at least, not for a while), and continue generating new tones as they continue upward or downward. Such scales lack a very familiar compositional [[redundancy|redundancy]], that of octave equivalence, and thus require special attention.
