'''4afdo''' ([[AFDO|arithmetic division of the octave]]), or '''4odo''' ([[otonal division]] of the octave), divides the octave into four parts of 1/4 each. As a scale it may be known as [[Harmonic mode|mode 4 of the harmonic series]] or the [[Overtone scale #Over-n scales|Over-4]] scale. Because 4 is a power of 2, 4afdo corresponds to the 4th to 8th harmonics octave-reduced. The notes of 4afdo create a [[4:5:6:7|harmonic seventh chord]].

'''4afdo''' ([[AFDO|arithmetic division of the octave]]), or '''4odo''' ([[otonal division]] of the octave), divides the octave into four parts of 1/4 each. It is a superset of [[3afdo]] and a subset of [[5afdo]]. As a scale it may be known as [[Harmonic mode|mode 4 of the harmonic series]] or the [[Overtone scale #Over-n scales|Over-4]] scale. Because 4 is a power of 2, 4afdo corresponds to the 4th to 8th harmonics octave-reduced. The notes of 4afdo create a [[4:5:6:7|harmonic seventh chord]].

The smallest [[~~EDO~~]]s that maintain 25% or lower relative error on all intervals of 4afdo are [[10edo]] and [[15edo]], though they are not very accurate. The next two ~~EDOs~~, [[22edo]] and [[31edo]], are the smallest that approximate 4afdo with appreciable accuracy.
