5 equal divisions of the perfect fifth (abbreviated 5edf or 5ed3/2) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 3/2 into 5 equal parts of about 140 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of (3/2)1/5, or the 5th root of 3/2. It corresponds to 8.5476 edo.
Theory
5edf is close to the bleu generator chain and every second step of 17edo (also known as 17ed4) 5edf has an extremely accurate approximation of the seventh harmonic for its size.
5edf is notable as a relatively basic and easy-to-use nonoctave system. Traditional harmony using major and minor triads is accessible in 5edf, although they are not 5-limit but rather septimal/undecimal in flavor. One must be wary of the 3/2-equivalence paradigm-there is no dominant, and major and minor triads, seventh chords, ninth chords, etc. are all merely voicings of major and minor dyads. Diminished chords also play a more important role than they do traditionally, as unlike the conventional triads, they are not equivalent to dyads, and are somewhat more consonant than in 12edo due to the laxer subtritone.
