31 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 31edo or 31ed2), also called 31-tone equal temperament (31tet) or 31 equal temperament (31et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 31 equal parts of about 38.7 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 2^1/31, or the 31st root of 2.

31edo is also referred to as the tricesimoprimal meantone temperament. The term tricesimoprimal was first used by Adriaan Fokker.

31 equal temperament

Theory

31edo's perfect fifth is flat of just by 5.2 ¢, as befits a tuning of meantone. The major third is less than a cent sharp of just 5/4, making it slightly sharp of quarter-comma meantone. 31edo's approximation of 7/4, a cent flat, is also very close to just. Because of the near-just 5/4 and 7/4, 31edo is relatively quite accurate in the 7-limit. Many 7-limit JI scales are well-approximated in 31 (with tempering, of course).

Prime 11 is somewhat less accurate, making intervals like 11/8 off by about 9 cents. However, intervals like 11/9 and 11/6 are approximated quite well because the errors cancel out. This makes 31edo a very tone-efficient melodic approximation of the 11-limit (and specifically the 11-odd-limit), although it conflates 9/7 with 14/11 and 11/8 with 15/11. It also maps most 15-odd-limit intervals consistently, the exceptions being 13/9, 13/11, and their octave complements.

Other ways in which 31edo is especially accurate is that it represents a record in Pepper ambiguity in the 7-, 9-, and 11-odd-limit, which it is consistent through. It is also a strict zeta edo, meaning that it is a zeta peak, zeta peak integer, zeta integral, and zeta gap edo all at once.

One step of 31edo, measuring about 38.7 ¢, is called a diesis because it stands in for several intervals called dieses (most notably, 128/125 and 648/625) which are tempered out in 12edo. The diesis is a defining sound of 31edo; when it does not appear directly in a scale, it often shows up as the difference between two or more intervals of a similar size. The diesis is demonstrated in SpiralProgressions. Zhea Erose's 31edo music uses the interval frequently.

In terms of interval categories, because 31edo is a meantone system, the major and minor seconds, thirds, sixth, and sevenths on the chain of fifths are equated to 5-limit intervals, those being 16/15, 10/9, 6/5, 5/4, and their octave complements. 31edo maps the chromatic semitone to two steps, meaning there are "neutral" intervals between minor and major ones, which are not found in 12edo. They can be represented by 11-limit intervals, with 11/10~12/11 being a neutral second, and 11/9~27/22 a neutral third. One step in the other direction from the classical intervals are the subminor and supermajor intervals, which can be seen as intervals of prime 7. The subminor second is 21/20~28/27, the supermajor second 8/7, the subminor third 7/6, and the supermajor third 9/7~14/11. 31edo thus has five varieties of seconds and thirds, which is much more than the two varieties in 12edo.

As a tuning of other temperaments

Besides meantone, 31edo can be used as a tuning for mohajira, mothra or less optimally miracle and valentine. These temperaments split 31edo's fifth, at 18 steps, into two, three, six, and nine equal parts. In fact, 31edo can be defined as the unique temperament that tempers out 81/80, 99/98, 121/120, and 126/125.

If we split the meantone generator of ~3/2 into two neutral thirds, each representing 11/9~27/22, then we get the 2.3.5.11-subgroup temperament mohaha, tempering out 121/120 and 243/242. We can then map 7/4 to the semi-diminished seventh (-13 generators), tempering out 385/384, to get the full 11-limit mohajira temperament, which maps 7/6, 6/5, 11/9, 5/4, and 9/7 equidistant from each other. Alternatively, we can use the septimal meantone mapping of 7/4 (+20 generators) to get migration. Mohajira and migration merge in 31edo, and create a near-optimal 11-limit meantone structure in one unified system.

The supermajor second 8/7 is mapped to a third of the perfect fifth in 31edo, thus tempering out 1029/1024, supporting slendric in the 2.3.7-subgroup. Slendric is a cluster temperament with 5 clusters of notes in an octave, each with nearby intervals separated by the interval found at -5 generators, or 1 step of 31edo, representing 49/48~64/63. For example, 9/8, 8/7, and 7/6 are one step apart from each other, as well as 9/7, 21/16, and 4/3. 31edo supports the full 7-limit extension mothra, which tempers out 81/80, thus equating the 49/48~64/63 spacer with 36/35, so that 9/8~10/9, 8/7, 7/6, and 6/5 are all mapped equidistantly, as well as 5/4, 9/7, 21/16, and 4/3. Mothra splits into two 11-limit extensions: undecimal mothra (26 & 31) tempering out 99/98, and mosura (31 & 36) tempering out 176/175.

Miracle temperament splits the slendric generator in two parts and the perfect fifth in six, each representing 15/14~16/15, thus tempering out 225/224, so that 5/4 is found at -7 generators. The 11-limit version of miracle sets 11/9 to the neutral third, with prime 11 mapped at +15 generators. While 31edo supports miracle, a more accurate tuning is 72edo. Valentine temperament splits the slendric generator in three parts and the perfect fifth in nine, each representing 21/20, tempering out 126/125. Valentine can also be seen as Carlos Alpha but with octaves added. The canonical 11-limit extension equates the step with 22/21, thus tempering out 121/120, 176/175, and 441/440.

31edo also supports orwell, which splits the perfect twelfth into seven equal parts of ~7/6. Three of these reach 8/5, and two reach 11/8, with 1–7/6–11/8–8/5 being the orwell tetrad. Commas tempered out by orwell include 99/98, 121/120, 176/175, and 385/384, among others.

Another notable temperament it supports is myna, which is generated by the minor third, and sets the intervals 7/6, 6/5, 11/9~16/13, 5/4, and 9/7 being equidistant. Like mohajira, it creates five interval categories, but with 126/125 tempered out instead of 81/80.

31edo also supports squares, which splits the perfect eleventh into four equal parts, each representing 14/11~9/7, two of which make 18/11, and four of which make 8/3. The 2.3.7.11 subgroup version of this temperament is sometimes known as skwares, tempering out 99/98 and 243/242. Then, prime 5 is found by tempering out 81/80, completing the 11-limit.

Another temperament supported by 31edo is würschmidt, which is generated by 5/4, such that 8 intervals of 5/4 reach 6/1. Würschmidt extends to the 7- and 11-limit through the skwares mapping, also creating 5 interval categories, with the thirds being 7/6, 6/5, 11/9, 5/4, and 14/11~9/7, each equidistant from each other.

Subsets and supersets

31edo is the 11th prime edo, following 29edo and coming before 37edo. It does not contain any nontrivial subset edos, though it contains 31ed4. 62edo and 93edo, which double and triple it, respectively, provide alternative ways to extend the temperament to the 13-, 17-, and 19-limits, and in the case of 93edo, even to the 23-limit.

217edo, which slices the edostep in seven, provides a very good correction of primes 3, 13, 17 and 31, and is consistent in the 21-odd-limit.

Interval quality and chord names in color notation

Combining ups and downs notation with color notation, qualities can be loosely associated with colors:

Quality	Color name	Monzo format	Examples
downminor	zo	[a b 0 1⟩	7/6, 7/4
minor	fourthward wa	[a b⟩ where b > −1	32/27, 16/9
minor	gu	[a b -1⟩	6/5, 9/5
mid	ilo	[a b 0 0 1⟩	11/9, 11/6
mid	lu	[a b 0 0 -1⟩	12/11, 18/11
major	yo	[a b 1⟩	5/4, 5/3
major	fifthward wa	[a b⟩ where b > 1	9/8, 27/16
upmajor	ru	[a b 0 -1⟩	9/7, 12/7

All 31edo chords can be named using ups and downs. Alterations are always enclosed in parentheses, additions never are. An up, down or mid immediately after the chord root affects the 3rd, 6th, 7th, and/or the 11th (every other note of a stacked-3rds chord 6-1-3-5-7-9-11-13). Here are the zo, gu, ilo, yo and ru triads:

Color of the 3rd	JI chord	Edosteps	Notes of C chord	Written name	Spoken name
zo (7-over)	6:7:9	0 – 7 – 18	C – vE – G or C – E – G	Cvm	C downminor
gu (5-under)	10:12:15	0 – 8 – 18	C – E – G	Cm	C minor

Notation

Ups and downs notation

Spoken as up, sharp, upsharp, etc. Note that up can be respelled as downsharp. The gamut runs D, ^D/vD#, D#, Eb, ^Eb/vE, E, ^E, vF, F etc.

Step offset	0	1	2	3	4	5
Sharp symbol
Flat symbol

Neutral chain-of-fifths notation

Since a sharp raises by 2 steps, 31edo can be notated using quarter-tone accidentals. Between C and D (do and re) for example, we have the following notes:

Degree	Letter	Solfège	English full name
0	C	do	C
1	C⁠ ⁠	do ⁠ ⁠	C half-sharp
2	C♯	do ♯	C sharp
3	D♭	re ♭	D flat
4	D⁠ ⁠	re ⁠ ⁠	D half-flat
5	D	re	D

Stein–Zimmermann accidentals

Step offset	−4	−3	−2	−1	0	+1	+2	+3	+4
Symbol

Chain-of-fifths notation

Chain-of-fifths notation uses double sharps and double flats only:

Degree	Letter	Solfège	English full name
0	C	do	C
1	D𝄫	re 𝄫	D double flat
2	C♯	do ♯	C sharp
3	D♭	re ♭	D flat
4	C𝄪	do 𝄪	C double sharp
5	D	re	D

While using double sharps and double flats may seem confusing because it alternates between C and D, it provides a way of writing chords that is consistent with traditional notation. For example, the subminor7 chord 12:14:18:21 is written like so:

C / D♯ / G / A♯
C♯ / D𝄪 / G♯ / A𝄪
D♭ / E / A♭ / B
D / E♯ / A / B♯

In 12edo, the enharmonic equivalences include C♯ = D♭, E♯ = F, and E = F♭. But in 31edo we have:

C𝄪 = D⁠ ⁠
D𝄫 = C⁠ ⁠
E♯ = F⁠ ⁠
F♭ = E⁠ ⁠
E𝄪 = F⁠ ⁠
F𝄫 = E⁠ ⁠

Sagittal notation

This notation uses the same sagittal sequence as edos 17, 24, and 38, and is a subset of the notation for 62edo.

Evo flavor

Evo-SZ flavor

Because it contains no Sagittal symbols, this Evo-SZ Sagittal notation is identical to Stein–Zimmerman notation.

Revo flavor

We also have a diagram from the appendix to The Sagittal Songbook by Jacob A. Barton, which gives multiple spellings for each pitch, and up to the double-apotome:

Relationship to 12edo

31edo’s circle of 31 fifths can be bent into a 12-spoked "spiral of fifths". In Kite Giedraitis' theory, this is possible because going up 12 fifths in 31edo yields a difference (the absolute value of the dodeca-sharpness) of 1 edostep (which also implies that 18\31 is on the 7\12 kite in the scale tree).

This "spiral of fifths" can be a useful construct for introducing 31edo to musicians unfamiliar with microtonal music. It may help composers and musicians to make visual sense of the notation, and to understand what size of a jump is likely to land them where compared to 12edo.

The two innermost and two outermost intervals on the spiral are duplicates, reflecting the fact that it is a repeating circle at heart and the spiral shape is only a helpful illusion.

Consistent circles

31edo is close to a circle made by stacking 31 pure 17/13 subfourths. A circle of 31 pure 17/13's closes with an error of only 2.74 cents (relative error 7.1%). Remarkably, 31edo tempers out 83521/83486, the 0.7-cent difference between a stack of four 17/13's and a stack of one 19/13 and one 2/1, giving 31edo's oneirotonic (5L 3s) mos accurate 13:17:19 chords.

31et is lower in relative error than any previous equal temperaments in the 7-, 11-, 13-, and 17-limit. The next equal temperaments doing better in those subgroups are 72, 72, 41, and 46, respectively.
31et excels in the 2.5.7 subgroup (the JI chord 4:5:7 is represented highly consistently: to distance 10.36). In 2.5.7 it tempers out the didacus comma 3136/3125 and the quince comma 823543/819200, thus also tempering out the very small rainy comma, the simplest 2.5.7 comma tempered out by the 7-limit microtemperament 171edo.
In the 17-limit it tempers out 120/119, equating the otonal tetrad of 4:5:6:7 and the inversion of the 10:12:15:17 minor tetrad.

Rank-2 temperaments

31edo provides the optimal patent val for the rank-5 temperament tempering out the 13-limit comma 66/65, which equates 6/5 and 13/11. It also provides the optimal patent val for mohajira, squares, and casablanca in the 11-limit, and huygens/meantone, squares, winston, lupercalia, and nightengale in the 13-limit.

Octave stretch or compression

31edo can benefit from slightly stretching the octave, especially when using it as an 11-limit equal temperament. With the right amount of stretch we can find a slightly better 3rd harmonic and significantly better 11th harmonic at the expense of somewhat less accurate approximations of 5, 7, and 13.

Good options include:

127zpi: Good 13-limit option
80ed6: Great 11-limit option but bad harmonic 13
49edt: Good 13-limit option for the opposite mapping of 13

Scales

MOS scales

Main article: List of MOS scales in 31edo

The fact that 31edo has meantone diatonic and chromatic scales is well-known, but some other MOSes and MOS chains^{[clarification needed]} are also useful:

9\31, the neutral third, generates ultrasoft mosh and superhard dicotonic MOSes.
11\31, the supermajor third or diminished fourth, generates a parahard sensoid scale with resolution from neutral thirds, sixths, and sevenths to perfect fourths, fifths, and octaves, and a semihard 3L 8s scale with a jagged-but-chromatic feel.
12\31 generator generates a semihard oneirotonic (5L 3s) scale, similar to the 5L 3s scale in 13edo but with the 9/8, 5/4, and 7/6 better in tune and with the flat fifth close to 19/13.
A chain of 5\31 whole tones is exceptionally rich in 4:5:7 chords, which are approximated very well in 31edo.
If you're fond of orwell tetrads (which are also found in 31edo's oneirotonic), you will like the 7\31 (271.0 ¢) subminor third generator. The ultrasoft 9-tone orwelloid 4L 5s MOS could be treated as a 9-tone well temperament.
It has close approximations to 6edf (→ miracle) and 9edf (→ Carlos Alpha), fifth-equivalent equal divisions that hit many good JI approximations.

See #Rank-2 temperaments for a table of MOSes and their temperament interpretations.

Harmonic scales

31edo approximates Mode 8 of the harmonic series okay, but many intervals between the harmonics aren't distinguished, most importantly 9/8 (major tone) and 10/9 (minor tone), as 31EDO is a meantone temperament. The interval between the 8th and 11th harmonics is approximated okay, but the intervals between the 11th harmonic and closer harmonics such as the 12th and 9th harmonics are approximated much better. 31edo's closest approximation of 13/8, the neutral sixth, is significantly sharper than just and only vaguely suggests the 13-limit.

The steps are: 5 5 4 4 4 3 3 3.

…in cents:	0	193.5	387.1	541.9	696.8	851.6	967.7	1083.9	1200.0

In mode 16, the most closely-matched harmonics are the composite ones, 21 and 25. Of the other harmonics:

17 is sharp, like 13. In fact, the 17:13 ratio is matched within a tenth of a cent.
19 is also sharp, like 13 and 17. The 19:17 ratio is about one cent sharp. 31edo could be considered a tuning of the 2.5.7.13.17.19 subgroup, on which it is consistent (see mercy temperament).
23 is about as flat as 11. The chromatic semitone is about half a cent off from 23:22. 31edo could be considered a tuning of the 2.3.5.7.11.23 subgroup, on which it is consistent.
27 is quite flat, as it's 3³ and the error from the meantone fifths accumulates.
29 and 31 are both almost critically sharp, and intervals involving them are unlikely to play any major role.

-edo's perfect fifth is flat of the just interval [[3/2]] (over five cents), as befits a tuning [[support]]ing [[meantone]], but the major third is less than a cent sharp of just [[5/4]], making it slightly sharp of [[quarter-comma meantone]]. 31's approximation of [[7/4]], a cent flat, is also very close to just.

-One step of 31edo, measuring about 38.7¢, is called a [[diesis]] because it stands in for several intervals called "dieses" (most notably, [[128/125]] and [[648/625]]) which are tempered out in [[12edo]]. The diesis is a defining sound of 31edo; when it does not appear directly in a scale, it often shows up as the difference between two or more intervals of a similar size. The diesis is demonstrated in [[SpiralProgressions]]. [[Zhea Erose]]'s 31edo music uses the interval frequently.
+One step of 31edo, measuring about 38.7{{c}}, is called a [[diesis]] because it stands in for several intervals called ''dieses'' (most notably, [[128/125]] and [[648/625]]) which are tempered out in [[12edo]]. The diesis is a defining sound of 31edo; when it does not appear directly in a scale, it often shows up as the difference between two or more intervals of a similar size. The diesis is demonstrated in [[SpiralProgressions]]. [[Zhea Erose]]'s 31edo music uses the interval frequently.
-edo is close to a circle made by stacking 31 pure [[17/13]] subfourths. A circle of 31 pure 17/13's closes with an error of only 2.74 cents ([[relative error]] 7.1%). Remarkably, 31edo tempers out [[83521/83486]], the 0.7-cent difference between a stack of four 17/13's and a stack of one 19/13 and one 2/1, giving 31edo's [[oneirotonic]] (5L 3s) [[mos]] accurate 13:17:19 chords.
+In terms of interval categories, because 31edo is a meantone system, the major and minor seconds, thirds, sixth, and sevenths on the chain of fifths are equated to [[5-limit]] intervals, those being [[16/15]], [[10/9]], [[6/5]], [[5/4]], and their [[octave complement]]s. 31edo maps the chromatic semitone to two steps, meaning there are "[[neutral (interval quality)|neutral]]" intervals between minor and major ones, which are not found in [[12edo]]. They can be represented by [[11-limit]] intervals, with [[11/10]]~[[12/11]] being a neutral second, and [[11/9]]~[[27/22]] a neutral third. One step in the other direction from the classical intervals are the subminor and supermajor intervals, which can be seen as intervals of prime [[7/1|7]]. The subminor second is [[21/20]]~[[28/27]], the supermajor second [[8/7]], the subminor third [[7/6]], and the supermajor third [[9/7]]~[[14/11]]. 31edo thus has five varieties of seconds and thirds, which is much more than the two varieties in 12edo.

+{{Harmonics in equal|31|columns=11|start=12|collapsed=true|title=Approximation of prime harmonics in 31edo (continued)}}
+=== As a tuning of other temperaments ===
+Besides meantone, 31edo can be used as a tuning for [[mohajira]], [[mothra]] or less optimally [[miracle]] and [[valentine]]. These temperaments split 31edo's fifth, at 18 steps, into two, three, six, and nine equal parts. In fact, 31edo can be defined as the unique temperament that [[tempering out|tempers out]] [[81/80]], [[99/98]], [[121/120]], and [[126/125]].
+If we split the meantone [[generator]] of ~3/2 into two neutral thirds, each representing [[11/9]]~[[27/22]], then we get the [[2.3.5.11 subgroup|2.3.5.11-subgroup]] temperament [[mohaha]], tempering out [[121/120]] and [[243/242]]. We can then map [[7/4]] to the semi-diminished seventh (-13 generators), tempering out [[385/384]], to get the full 11-limit mohajira temperament, which maps 7/6, 6/5, 11/9, 5/4, and 9/7 equidistant from each other. Alternatively, we can use the septimal meantone mapping of 7/4 (+20 generators) to get [[migration]]. Mohajira and [[migration]] merge in 31edo, and create a near-optimal 11-limit meantone structure in one unified system.
+The supermajor second [[8/7]] is mapped to a third of the perfect fifth in 31edo, thus tempering out [[1029/1024]], supporting [[slendric]] in the [[2.3.7 subgroup|2.3.7-subgroup]]. Slendric is a [[cluster temperament]] with 5 clusters of notes in an octave, each with nearby intervals separated by the interval found at -5 generators, or 1 step of 31edo, representing [[49/48]]~[[64/63]]. For example, 9/8, 8/7, and 7/6 are one step apart from each other, as well as 9/7, 21/16, and 4/3. 31edo supports the full 7-limit extension mothra, which tempers out 81/80, thus equating the 49/48~64/63 spacer with [[36/35]], so that 9/8~10/9, 8/7, 7/6, and 6/5 are all mapped equidistantly, as well as 5/4, 9/7, 21/16, and 4/3. Mothra splits into two 11-limit extensions: [[Gamelismic clan#Undecimal mothra|undecimal mothra]] (26 & 31) tempering out [[99/98]], and [[mosura]] (31 & 36) tempering out [[176/175]].
+[[Miracle]] temperament splits the slendric generator in two parts and the perfect fifth in six, each representing [[15/14]]~[[16/15]], thus tempering out [[225/224]], so that 5/4 is found at -7 generators. The 11-limit version of miracle sets 11/9 to the neutral third, with prime 11 mapped at +15 generators. While 31edo supports miracle, a more accurate tuning is [[72edo]]. [[Valentine]] temperament splits the slendric generator in three parts and the perfect fifth in nine, each representing [[21/20]], tempering out [[126/125]]. Valentine can also be seen as [[Carlos Alpha]] but with octaves added. The canonical 11-limit extension equates the step with [[22/21]], thus tempering out [[121/120]], [[176/175]], and [[441/440]].
+edo also [[support]]s [[orwell]], which splits the [[3/1|perfect twelfth]] into seven equal parts of ~7/6. Three of these reach [[8/5]], and two reach [[11/8]], with 1–7/6–11/8–8/5 being the [[orwell tetrad]]. Commas tempered out by orwell include [[99/98]], [[121/120]], [[176/175]], and [[385/384]], among others.
+Another notable temperament it supports is [[myna]], which is generated by the minor third, and sets the intervals [[7/6]], [[6/5]], 11/9~[[16/13]], 5/4, and 9/7 being equidistant. Like mohajira, it creates five interval categories, but with 126/125 tempered out instead of 81/80.
+edo also supports [[squares]], which splits the [[8/3|perfect eleventh]] into four equal parts, each representing [[14/11]]~9/7, two of which make [[18/11]], and four of which make [[8/3]]. The [[2.3.7.11-subgroup|2.3.7.11 subgroup]] version of this temperament is sometimes known as ''skwares'', tempering out 99/98 and 243/242. Then, prime [[5/1|5]] is found by tempering out [[81/80]], completing the 11-limit.
+Another temperament supported by 31edo is [[würschmidt]], which is generated by 5/4, such that 8 intervals of 5/4 reach [[6/1]]. Würschmidt extends to the 7- and 11-limit through the skwares mapping, also creating 5 interval categories, with the thirds being 7/6, 6/5, 11/9, 5/4, and 14/11~9/7, each equidistant from each other.
 === Subsets and supersets ===
-edo is the 11th [[prime edo]], following [[29edo]] and coming before [[37edo]].
+edo is the 11th [[prime edo]], following [[29edo]] and coming before [[37edo]]. It does not contain any nontrivial subset edos, though it contains [[31ed4]]. [[62edo]] and [[93edo]], which double and triple it, respectively, provide alternative ways to extend the temperament to the 13-, 17-, and 19-limits, and in the case of 93edo, even to the 23-limit.
+[[217edo]], which slices the edostep in seven, provides a very good correction of primes 3, 13, 17 and 31, and is consistent in the 21-odd-limit.

 == Relationship to 12edo ==
-edo’s [[circle of fifths|circle of 31 fifths]] can be bent into a [[spiral chart|12-spoked "spiral of fifths"]]. This is possible because 18\31 is on the 7\12 kite in the [[scale tree]]. Stated another way, it is possible because the absolute value of 31edo’s [[sharpness#dodeca-sharpness|dodeca-sharpness]] (edosteps per [[Pythagorean comma]]) is 1.
+edo’s [[circle of fifths|circle of 31 fifths]] can be bent into a [[spiral chart|12-spoked "spiral of fifths"]]. In Kite Giedraitis' theory, this is possible because going up 12 fifths in 31edo yields a difference (the absolute value of the [[Sharpness|dodeca-sharpness]]) of 1 edostep (which also implies that 18\31 is on the 7\12 kite in the [[scale tree]]).
 This "spiral of fifths" can be a useful construct for introducing 31edo to musicians unfamiliar with microtonal music. It may help composers and musicians to make visual sense of the notation, and to understand what size of a jump is likely to land them where compared to 12edo.

-== Scales ==

-=== MOS scales ===
-{{main| 31edo MOS scales }}
-The fact that 31edo has meantone diatonic and chromatic scales is well-known, but some other [[MOS]]es and MOS chains{{clarify}} are also useful:
-* 9\31, the neutral third, generates [[ultrasoft]] [[mosh]] and [[superhard]] [[dicotonic]] MOSes.
-* 11\31, the supermajor third or diminished fourth, generates a [[TAMNAMS|parahard]] [[sensoid]] scale with resolution from neutral thirds, sixths, and sevenths to perfect fourths, fifths, and octaves, and a [[semihard]] [[3L 8s]] scale with a jagged-but-chromatic feel.
-* 12\31 generator generates a [[semihard]] [[oneirotonic]] scale, similar to the 5L 3s scale in [[13edo]] but with the 9/8, 5/4 and 7/6 better in tune and with the flat fifth close to [[19/13]].
-* A chain of 5\31 whole tones is exceptionally rich in 4:5:7 chords, which are approximated very well in 31edo.
-* If you're fond of orwell tetrads (which are also found in 31edo's oneirotonic), you will like the 7\31 (271.0¢) subminor third generator. The [[ultrasoft]] 9-tone [[4L 5s|orwelloid (4L 5s)]] MOS could be treated as a 9-tone well temperament.
-* It has close approximations to [[6edf]] (&rarr; [[miracle]]) and [[9edf]] (&rarr; [[Carlos Alpha]]), fifth-equivalent equal divisions that hit many good JI approximations.
-See [[#Rank-2 temperaments]] for a table of MOSes and their temperament interpretations.
-=== Harmonic scales ===
-edo approximates Mode 8 of the [[harmonic series]] okay, but many intervals between the harmonics aren't distinguished, most importantly 9/8 (major tone) and 10/9 (minor tone), as 31EDO is a meantone temperament. The interval between the 8th and 11th harmonics is approximated okay, but the intervals between the 11th harmonic and closer harmonics such as the 12th and 9th harmonics are approximated even better. 31's version of 13/8 is quite wide and only vaguely suggests the [[13-limit]].
-The steps are: 5 5 4 4 4 3 3 3.

-* 19 is also sharp, like 13 and 17. The 19:17 ratio is about one cent sharp. 31edo could be considered a tuning of the 2.5.7.13.17.19 subgroup, on which it is consistent (see [[No-threes subgroup temperaments#Mercy|mercy temperament]]).
-* 23 is about as flat as 11. The chromatic semitone is about half a cent off from 23:22. 31edo could be considered a tuning of the 2.3.5.7.11.23 subgroup, on which it is consistent.
-* 27 is quite flat, as it's 3^3 and the error from the meantone fifths accumulates.

+== Octave stretch or compression ==
+edo can benefit from slightly [[stretched and compressed tuning|stretching the octave]], especially when using it as an [[11-limit]] equal temperament. With the right amount of stretch we can find a slightly better 3rd harmonic and significantly better 11th harmonic at the expense of somewhat less accurate approximations of 5, 7, and 13.
+Good options include:
+* [[zpi|127zpi]]: Good [[13-limit]] option
+* [[80ed6]]: Great 11-limit option but bad harmonic 13
+* [[49edt]]: Good 13-limit option for the opposite mapping of 13

+=== MOS scales ===
+{{main| List of MOS scales in 31edo }}
+The fact that 31edo has meantone diatonic and chromatic scales is well-known, but some other [[MOS]]es and MOS chains{{clarify}} are also useful:
+* 9\31, the neutral third, generates [[ultrasoft]] [[mosh]] and [[superhard]] [[dicotonic]] MOSes.
+* 11\31, the supermajor third or diminished fourth, generates a [[TAMNAMS|parahard]] [[sensoid]] scale with resolution from neutral thirds, sixths, and sevenths to perfect fourths, fifths, and octaves, and a [[semihard]] [[3L&nbsp;8s]] scale with a jagged-but-chromatic feel.
+* 12\31 generator generates a [[semihard]] oneirotonic ([[5L&nbsp;3s]]) scale, similar to the 5L&nbsp;3s scale in [[13edo]] but with the 9/8, 5/4, and 7/6 better in tune and with the flat fifth close to [[19/13]].
+* A chain of 5\31 whole tones is exceptionally rich in 4:5:7 chords, which are approximated very well in 31edo.
+* If you're fond of orwell tetrads (which are also found in 31edo's oneirotonic), you will like the 7\31 (271.0{{c}}) subminor third generator. The [[ultrasoft]] 9-tone orwelloid [[4L&nbsp;5s]] MOS could be treated as a 9-tone well temperament.
+* It has close approximations to [[6edf]] (→&nbsp;[[miracle]]) and [[9edf]] (→&nbsp;[[Carlos Alpha]]), fifth-equivalent equal divisions that hit many good JI approximations.
+See [[#Rank-2 temperaments]] for a table of MOSes and their temperament interpretations.
+=== Harmonic scales ===
+edo approximates Mode 8 of the [[harmonic series]] okay, but many intervals between the harmonics aren't distinguished, most importantly 9/8 (major tone) and 10/9 (minor tone), as 31EDO is a meantone temperament. The interval between the 8th and 11th harmonics is approximated okay, but the intervals between the 11th harmonic and closer harmonics such as the 12th and 9th harmonics are approximated much better. 31edo's closest approximation of 13/8, the neutral sixth, is significantly sharper than just and only vaguely suggests the [[13-limit]].
+The steps are: 5 5 4 4 4 3 3 3.

+In mode 16, the most closely-matched harmonics are the composite ones, 21 and 25. Of the other harmonics:
+* 17 is sharp, like 13. In fact, the 17:13 ratio is matched within a tenth of a cent.
+* 19 is also sharp, like 13 and 17. The 19:17 ratio is about one cent sharp. 31edo could be considered a tuning of the 2.5.7.13.17.19 subgroup, on which it is consistent (see [[Quince clan#Mercy|mercy temperament]]).
+* 23 is about as flat as 11. The chromatic semitone is about half a cent off from 23:22. 31edo could be considered a tuning of the 2.3.5.7.11.23 subgroup, on which it is consistent.
+* 27 is quite flat, as it's 3<sup>3</sup> and the error from the meantone fifths accumulates.
+* 29 and 31 are both almost critically sharp, and intervals involving them are unlikely to play any major role.
