'''Arithmetic pitch sequence of 720jot''' ('''APS720jot'''), also known as '''1 equal division of 720jot''' ('''1ed720jot''') or '''720-jot equal temperament''' ('''720jot-et'''), is an [[Equal-step tuning|equal-step]] scale with steps of 720 [[30103edo|jots]] (~28.7015 [[cents]]), or each 720th step of [[30103edo]].

APS720jot divides [[2/1]] into ~41.8097 equal parts, making it close to [[42edo]], but with [[pseudo-octave|impure octaves]] and better approximations of harmonics [[3/1]] and [[5/1]].


APS720jot divides [[2/1]] into ~41.8097 equal parts, making it close to [[42edo]], but with [[pseudo-octave|impure octaves]] and better approximations of harmonics [[3/1]] and [[5/1]].
It is a kind of opposite twin to the scale [[1ed28.5c|APS715jot]], as they improve 42edo’s [[JI]] approximation by about the same amount, but in opposite directions (those harmonics which are slightly sharp in one are slightly flat in the other).


It is a kind of opposite twin to the scale [[191zpi]]. 191zpi makes [[42edo]] into a better 2.3.5.11.13 tuning, while APS720jot makes 42edo into a better 2.3.5.7.17 tuning. They both improve 42edo but in opposite directions.
42ed257/128’s step size is very close to that of [[42ed257/128]] and [[zpi|189zpi]].


APS720jot is very similar to [[42ed257/128]], which achieves many of the same aims. The difference is that 42ed257/128 has better harmonics 3, 5 and 7, while APS720jot has better harmonics 2, 11 and 13.
See [[Table of stretched 42edo tunings]] for more.
