The '''equal division of 9 | {{Editable user page}} | ||
The '''equal division of 9/2''' ('''ed9/2''') is a [[tuning]] obtained by dividing [[9/2|two octaves and a Pythagorean major second (9/2)]] into a number of [[equal]] steps. | |||

Division of 9/2 into equal parts | Division of 9/2 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an [[equivalence]]. Many, though not all, ed9/2 scales have a perceptually important [[Pseudo-octave|false octave]], with various degrees of accuracy. | ||
One approach to ed9/2 tunings is the use of the 9:10:14 chord as the fundamental complete sonority in a very similar way to the 4:5:6:(8) chord in meantone. Whereas in meantone it takes four 3/2 to get to [[5/1]], here it takes seven [[14/9]] to get to [[10/9]] (tempering out the comma 215233605/210827008 in the 9/2.5.7 fractional subgroup). This temperament yields 7-, 10-, 17-, and 27-note [[mos scale]]s. | |||
