The '''equal division of 11/2''' ('''ed11/2''') is a [[tuning]] obtained by dividing the [[11/2|undecimal eighteenth (11/2)]] into a number of [[equal]] steps.

== Properties ==

Division of 11/2 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an [[equivalence]]~~. The question of equivalence has not even been posed yet~~. Many, though not all, of these scales have a perceptually important [[Pseudo-octave|false octave]], with various degrees of accuracy.

Division of 11/2 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an [[equivalence]]. Many, though not all, of these scales have a perceptually important [[Pseudo-octave|false octave]], with various degrees of accuracy.

Ed11/2s are a natural way to equalise and standardise any scale that repeats every 2940 to 2960 [[cents]], or that happens to be finite and simply ends between 2940 and 2960 cents above the [[root]]. It is most likely to be [[empirical tuning]]s that stumble into those properties, so a main use case for ed11/2 is approximating and deconstructing empirical tunings.
