13edo has a sharp fifth of 738c, which serves sort of an opposite role to 9edo's flat fifth of 667 cents (in fact, they are both separated from 3/2 by approximately the same amount in opposite directions). Notably for scale theory, this sharp fifth is extremely close to the [[Logarithmic phi|golden generator]] of 741 cents, and so 13edo has the MOS scales 2L 1s, 3L 2s, and 5L 3s and functions as an equalized 8L 5s.

The simplest JI interpretation of 13edo is in the 2.5.11 subgroup, in which it approximates intervals such as 11/10, 121/80, and 64/55. However, it notably has very good approximations to 13, 17, and 19 as well.

Additionally, 13edo has an excellent approximation to the 21st [[harmonic]], and a reasonable approximation to the 9th harmonic. For most purposes it does not offer acceptable approximations to the 3rd, 7th, or 15th. The lack of reasonable approximation to the 3rd harmonic makes 13edo unsuitable for common-practice music, but its good approximations to ratios of 11, 13, and 21 make it a very xenharmonic tuning, as these identities are not remotely represented in 12edo. Despite its reputation for dissonance, it is an excellent rank-1 subgroup temperament, with the 2.5.9.11.13.17.19.21 subgroup being a particularly good example. It has a substantial repertoire of complex consonances for its small size.
 
One step of 13edo is very close to [[135/128]] by direct approximation (it is a [[Wikipedia:Continued_fraction|semiconvergent]]).
 
In 13edo, the steps less than 600¢ are narrower than their nearest 12edo approximation, while those greater than 600¢ are wider. This allows for some neat ear-bending tricks, whereby melodic gestures reminiscent of 12edo can quickly arrive at an unfamiliar place.
 
=== Odd harmonics ===
 
{{Harmonics in equal|13}}


'''13EDO''' is a tuning system which divides the [[octave]] into 13 equal parts of approximately 92.3 [[cent]]s each. It is the sixth [[prime EDO]], following [[11edo|11EDO]] and coming before [[17edo|17EDO]]. The steps less than 600¢ are narrower than their nearest 12EDO approximation, while those greater than 600¢ are wider. This allows for some neat ear-bending tricks, whereby melodic gestures reminiscent of 12EDO can quickly arrive at an unfamiliar place.
=== Subsets and supersets ===
13edo is the sixth [[prime edo]], following [[11edo]] and coming before [[17edo]].


== Theory ==
The 5-limit [[aluminium]] temperament (supported by [[65edo]], [[494edo]] and [[1547edo]]) realizes this proximity through a regular temperament perspective, combining the sound of 13edo with the simplicity of 5-limit JI. (See [[regular temperament]] for more about what this means and how to use it.)  A notable smaller superset is [[26edo]], which is a good [[flattone]] tuning, although its step has very high harmonic entropy. An intermediate-sized superset is [[39edo]], which corrects the 3rd and (marginally) 5th harmonics better (but is worse for the 7th harmonic) and has a step size with less harmonic entropy than [[26edo]], while having a more manageable number of notes than 65edo.
{{Odd harmonics in edo|edo=13}}


As a temperament of 21-odd-limit Just Intonation, 13EDO has excellent approximations to the 11th and 21st harmonics, and reasonable approximations to the 5th, 9th, 13th, 17th, and 19th harmonics. For most purposes it does not offer acceptable approximations to the 3rd, 7th, or 15th. The lack of reasonable approximation to the 3rd harmonic makes 13EDO unsuitable for common-practice music, but its good approximations to ratios of 11, 13, and 21 make it a very xenharmonic tuning, as these identities are not remotely represented in 12EDO. Despite its reputation for dissonance, it is an excellent rank-1 subgroup temperament, with the '''2.5.9.11.13.17.19.21''' subgroup being a particularly good example. It has a substantial repertoire of complex consonances for its small size.

== Notations ==
There are seven categories of notation. Only the first two categories are backwards-compatible. They both allow conventional notation to be used, including the staff, note names, relative notation, chord names, etc. And they both allow a piece in conventional notation to be translated to 13edo. They both use the conventional genchain of fifths:
 
...Db - Ab - Eb - Bb - F - C - G - D -A - E - B - F#- C# - G# - D#...
 
...d8 - d5 - m2 - m6 - m3 - m7 - P4 - P1 - P5 - M2 - M6 - M3 - M7 - A4 - A1...
 
Except the first version of the second notation swaps sharp and flat, major and minor, and augmented and diminished.
 
=== Heptatonic 5th-generated (wide 5th) ===
13edo can also be notated with ups and downs. If one uses the best fifth, 8\13, the minor 2nd becomes a descending interval! Thus a major 2nd is wider than a minor 3rd, a major 3rd is wider than a perfect 4th, etc. And B is above C, E is above F, A is above Bb, etc. However one can use ups and downs to avoid minor 2nds. Thus A C B D becomes A vB ^C D.

{{Sharpness-sharp4}}
Half-sharps and half-flats can also be used, making the ascending scale:

=== Heptatonic 5th-generated (narrow fifth) ===
The notational 5th is the 2nd-best approximation of 3/2, 7\13. This is 56¢ flat of 3/2, and the best approximation is 36¢ sharp, noticeably better. But using the 2nd-best 5th avoids the minor 2nd being descending.
 
There are two ways to do this. The first way preserves the <u>melodic</u> meaning of sharp/flat, major/minor and aug/dim, in that sharp is higher pitched than flat, and major/aug is wider than minor/dim. The disadvantage to this approach is that conventional interval arithmetic no longer works. e.g. M2 + M2 isn't M3, and D + M2 isn't E. Chord names are different because C - E - G isn't P1 - M3 - P5.


13EDO can also be notated with ups and downs. The notational 5th is the 2nd-best approximation of 3/2, 7\13. This is 56¢ flat of 3/2, and the best approximation is 36¢ sharp, noticeably better. But using the 2nd-best 5th allows conventional notation to be used, including the staff, note names, relative notation, etc. There are two ways to do this. The first way preserves the <u>melodic</u> meaning of sharp/flat, major/minor and aug/dim, in that sharp is higher pitched than flat, and major/aug is wider than minor/dim. The disadvantage to this approach is that conventional interval arithmetic no longer works. e.g. M2 + M2 isn't M3, and D + M2 isn't E. Chord names are different because C - E - G isn't P1 - M3 - P5.
The second approach preserves the <u>harmonic</u> meaning of sharp/flat, major/minor and aug/dim, in that the former is always further fifthwards on the chain of fifths than the latter. Sharp is lower in pitch than flat, and major/aug is narrower than minor/dim. While this approach may seem bizarre at first, interval arithmetic and chord names work as usual. Furthermore, conventional 12edo music can be directly translated to 13edo "on the fly".


The second approach preserves the <u>harmonic</u> meaning of sharp/flat, major/minor and aug/dim, in that the former is always further fifthwards on the chain of fifths than the latter. Sharp is lower in pitch than flat, and major/aug is narrower than minor/dim. While this approach may seem bizarre at first, interval arithmetic and chord names work as usual. Furthermore, conventional 12EDO music can be directly translated to 13EDO "on the fly".
The first approach has Enharmonic unisons of a trud-augmented 1sn and a downminor 2nd. The second approach has a trup-augmented 1sn and a downmajor 2nd.

At the [[13edo and optimal octave stretching|local zeta peak of 13edo]], there is an improvement in both [[acoustic phi]] and [[logarithmic phi]].
 
== Tuning by ear ==
13edo can be approximated by a circle of [[64/49]] subminor fourths (which can be tuned by tuning two [[7/4]] subminor sevenths). A stack of 13 of these subfourths closes with an error of +10.526432¢, or +11% of 13-edo's step size.

13edo has a very good approximation of [[acoustic phi]] (9\13), with only -2.3 cents of error. The next better approximations are in [[23edo]] and [[36edo]]. As a coincidence, 13edo also has a very close appoximation of [[logarithmic phi]] (21\13), with only -3.2 cents of error. Logarithmic phi has some interesting applications in [[Metallic MOS]].

Another neat facet of 13EDO is the fact that any 12EDO scale can be "turned into" a 13EDO scale by either adding an extra semitone, or turning an existent semitone into a whole-tone. Because of this, melody in 13EDO can be quite mind-bending and uncanny, and phrases that begin in a familiar way quickly lead to something totally unexpected.

=== Pathological Modes ===
== Harmony in 13edo ==
2 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 1 1 [[2L 9s]] MOS
Contrary to popular belief, consonant harmony is possible in 13edo, but it requires a radically different approach than that used in 12edo (or other Pythagorean or Meantone-based tunings). Trying to approximate the usual major and minor triads of 12edo within 13edo is usually a disappointment if consonance is the goal; 0-3-7, 0-4-7, 0-3-8, and 0-4-8 are all rather rough in 13edo. Typically, the most consonant harmonies do not use a "stack of 3rds" the way they do in 12edo, since the strongest dissonances in 13edo are near the middle of the octave (<u>[[13edo#top|degree]]s</u> 6, 7, and 8). Instead, a stack of whole-tones, or a mixture of whole-tones and minor 3rds, often yields good results. For example, one way to view 13edo is as a subgroup temperament of harmonics 2.5.9.11.13. It actually performs quite admirably in this regard, and a chord of 0-4-15-19-22 (approximating 4:5:9:11:13) sounds very convincing. An even larger subgroup is the [[k*N_subgroups|2*13 subgroup]] 2.9.5.21.11.13, on which 13 has the same tuning and commas as 26edo.


3 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 [[1L 10s]] MOS
By this, we can assume that the major ninth of 13edo can be thought of as analogous to the perfect fifth in 12edo and other meantone edos. This means that the major second or major ninth is the most consonant interval next to 2/1 in 13edo followed by 11/8, 5/4 and so on. The 4:5:9 chord can therefore be thought of as a possible basic harmonic triad in 13edo.


2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 [[1L 11s]] MOS
The 2.9.5.11.13 subgroup has commas 45/44, 65/64 and 81/80, leading to a linear temperament with POTE generator 185.728 cents, quite <u>[[13edo#top|close]]</u> to 2\13. Use this as a generator, and at 7 notes (6L 1s) two full pentads are available (as well as two more 4:5:9:11 tetrad, and one 4:5:9:13 tetrad). These triads and tetrads are likely the most consonant base sonorities available in 13edo and act in a similar way to major/minor triads. However, other sonorities such as Orwell chords are available as well.

=== The Cryptic Ruse Methods ===
=== The Cryptic Ruse Methods ===
13EDO offers two main candidates for diatonic-like scales: the 6L 1s heptatonic MOS generated by 2\13, and the 5L 3s octatonic MOS. Both of these scales are [[Rothenberg propriety|Rothenberg proper]], and bear a slightly-twisted resemblance to the 12EDO diatonic scale. Specifically, the 6L 1s scale resembles the 12EDO diatonic with one of its semitones replaced with a whole-tone, while the 5L 3s scale resembles the 12EDO diatonic with an extra semitone inserted between two adjacent whole-tones.

Treating 13EDO as a temperament as proposed above leads to a chord of degrees 0-2-4-6-9 representing the JI harmony 8:9:10:11:13; two such pentads exist in this scale, on E and F. Smaller harmonic units exist as follows: 8:9:10:11 on C, D, E, and F; 8:9:10:13 on E, F and G; 8:9:10 on C, D, E, F, and G; 8:9:11 on C, D, E, and F; 8:9:13 on E, F, G, and A. Finally, on B we have the relatively-discordant 16:17:21:26 (0-1-5-9, or the notes B-C-E-G), which can be octave-inverted into a more concordant 8:13:17:21.

There may be other concordant harmonies possible in this scale that do not represent segments of the overtone series; further exploration is pending.

=== Fox and Inthar's approach ===
== Mapping to standard keyboards ==
Our approach is based on [[5L 3s]]. In fact, we have an absolute pitch notation for 5L 3s EDOs called the [[User:Inthar/Fox-Raven notation|Fox-Raven notation]].
 
== Mapping to Standard Keyboards ==
The 5L+3s scale (Oneirotonic) can be mapped to the standard keyboard effectively, although somewhat awkwardly. Consider the sequence of 730-cent intervals that it derives from: 1 6 11 3 8 (13) 5 10 2 7 12 4 9 1/1. One of these must be absent, so it might as well be the last. So, there are at most five of the full octatonic scales on different keys. Of the four mappings that keep the major pentatonic on the white keys, which ironically look like ordinary minor-pentatonics, the latter which begins on B might be the most straightforward to learn and use.

The archaeotonic tonality is much simpler to deal with: you just leave out a tone and remember which one. Although, for diatonic use it may be more convenient to put the missing tone between E/F or B/C to keep it on the white keys, with the remaining small step where it looks like it should be.

The animist comma, 105/104, appears whenever 3*5*7 = 2^3*13... 13EDO does not approximate 3 and 7 individually (26EDO does), but 13EDO has 21/16 (21 = 3*7) and is also an animist temperament. In 13EDO, the 5th harmonic is tuned so flatly that 5/4 = 16/13, leading to some interesting identities. So two scales stand out through this construction:
