217edo is a strong [[19-limit]] system, the smallest [[consistency|distinctly consistent]] in the [[19-odd-limit]] and consistent to the [[21-odd-limit]] as well as the no-23 [[31-odd-limit]]. It shares the same [[5/1|5th]] and [[7/1|7th]] [[harmonic]]s with [[31edo]] ({{nowrap|217 {{=}} 7 × 31}}), as well as the [[11/9]] interval (supporting the [[31-comma temperaments #Birds|birds temperament]]). However, compared to 31edo, its [[patent val]] differ on the mappings for [[3/1|3]], [[11/1|11]], [[13/1|13]], [[17/1|17]] and [[19/1|19]]—in fact, this edo has a very accurate 13th harmonic, as well as the [[19/15]] interval. It can also be used in the 23-limit. The only inconsistently mapped intervals in the [[23-odd-limit]] are [[23/14]], [[23/21]], and their [[octave complement]]s.

However, compared to [[31edo]], its [[patent val]] differ on the mappings for [[3/1|3]], [[11/1|11]], [[13/1|13]], [[17/1|17]] and [[19/1|19]], excelling as a [[2.3.5.13 subgroup|2.3.5.13-subgroup]] temperament. It can be used as a decent approximation of the [[31-limit]], ''almost'' being consistent through the [[31-odd-limit]] except for [[23/14]], [[23/21]], [[29/23]] and their [[octave complement]]s, with errors below the melodic [[just-noticeable difference]]. [[224edo]], only a bit bigger, offers a much more accurate [[13-limit]], at the cost of worse higher limits. If one desires even higher consistency and precision, [[311edo]] offers a much better palette.

It allows [[minor minthmic chords]], [[werckismic chords]], and [[sinbadmic chords]] in the 13-odd-limit, in addition to [[island chords]] and [[nicolic chords]] in the 15-odd-limit. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for the 11- and 13-limit [[arch]] and the 11- and 13-limit [[cotoneum]].

=== Prime harmonics ===
=== Prime harmonics ===
{{Harmonics in equal|217}}
{{Harmonics in equal|217}}
=== Subsets and supersets ===
Since 217 factors into primes as {{nowrap| 7 × 31 }}, a product of two {{w|Mersenne prime}}s, 217edo contains [[7edo]] and 31edo as subset edos.
== Intervals ==
Here below is an algorithmically generated table of no-37 39-odd-limit intervals of 217edo using [[User:Godtone #My Python 3 code|Godtone's code]], with some manually added useful intervals outside that limit. Intervals in italics are inconsistently mapped.

This could be useful when [[31edo]] is used as a base tuning, where the whole palette of 217edo is only used to provide subtle inflections of the 31edo pitches, similar to how one might use [[159edo]] to provide subtle corrections of [[53edo]] pitches. It also can be written with SZ half-sharps and up/down. The main drawback of this notation is that 3/2 is no longer P5 but '''^P5''' , so that ~4:5:6 is from C written as C-E-^G, compared to C-^<E-G to the patent val chain-of-fifths ups-and-downs notation.

=== 31edo-based notation ===
=== 7edo-based whitewood notation ===
Since 217edo is 31*7, one ''could'' base the notation on its inherited meantone fifth 126\217 (18\31) instead of its best fifth.
Since {{nowrap| 217 {{=}}  7 × 31}}, one ''could'' use the inherited [[Whitewood family|whitewood]] fifth 124\217, ditch sharps and flats, and instead use ups and downs to represent pitch deviations from the 7edo nominals. Since 31=15*2+1, all pitches can be notated with ups, downs, quips and quids. ~4:5:6 becomes C-^^^>E-^^^G.

217edo is the basis for an exceptional Ringer scale that maps an unusually very large amount of the harmonic series (without having to omit any other harmonics) compared to other edos in this size range. Specifically, it maps the complete mode 167 of the harmonic series, corresponding to the ''entire'' 333-odd-limit. As 217 = 31 * 7, this can be used to derive 7 possible 31nejis.

217 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 217edo or 217ed2), also called 217-tone equal temperament (217tet) or 217 equal temperament (217et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 217 equal parts of about 5.53 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/217, or the 217th root of 2.

Theory

217edo is a strong 19-limit system, the smallest distinctly consistent in the 19-odd-limit and consistent to the 21-odd-limit as well as the no-23 31-odd-limit. It shares the same 5th and 7th harmonics with 31edo (217 = 7 × 31), as well as the 11/9 interval (supporting the birds temperament). However, compared to 31edo, its patent val differ on the mappings for 3, 11, 13, 17 and 19, excelling as a 2.3.5.13-subgroup temperament. It can be used as a decent approximation of the 31-limit, almost being consistent through the 31-odd-limit except for 23/14, 23/21, 29/23 and their octave complements, with errors below the melodic just-noticeable difference. 224edo, only a bit bigger, offers a much more accurate 13-limit, at the cost of worse higher limits. If one desires even higher consistency and precision, 311edo offers a much better palette.

The equal temperament tempers out the parakleisma ([8 14 -13) and the escapade comma ([32 -7 -9) in the 5-limit; 3136/3125, 4375/4374, 10976/10935, and 823543/819200 in the 7-limit; 441/440, 4000/3993, 5632/5625, and 16384/16335 in the 11-limit; 364/363, 676/675, 1001/1000, 1575/1573, 2080/2079, and 4096/4095 in the 13-limit; 595/594, 833/832, 936/935, 1156/1155, 1225/1224, 1701/1700 in the 17-limit; 343/342, 476/475, 969/968, 1216/1215, 1445/1444, 1521/1520 and 1540/1539 in the 19-limit. It allows minor minthmic chords, werckismic chords, and sinbadmic chords in the 13-odd-limit, in addition to island chords and nicolic chords in the 15-odd-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for the 11- and 13-limit arch and the 11- and 13-limit cotoneum.

Subsets and supersets

Since 217 factors into primes as 7 × 31, a product of two Mersenne primes, 217edo contains 7edo and 31edo as subset edos.

Intervals

Here below is an algorithmically generated table of no-37 39-odd-limit intervals of 217edo using Godtone's code, with some manually added useful intervals outside that limit. Intervals in italics are inconsistently mapped.

  • 217et has lower relative errors than any previous equal temperaments in the 19- and 23-limit. It is the first to beat 72 in the 19-limit and 193 in the 23-limit. The next equal temperament that does better in either subgroup is 243e for absolute error and 270 for relative error.
  • 23-limit is not the subgroup it does best, with the no-23 29- and 31-limit approximated even better.
  • It is also notable in the 17-limit, with a lower absolute error than any previous equal temperaments, beating 183 and superseded by 224.

Notation

Sagittal

217edo can be written in Sagittal using almost the entire Athenian extension by virtue of its apotome being equal to 21 edosteps, which is the maximum equal division of the apotome (eda) supported by Athenian. It is identical to 224edo's Sagittal notation, but it uses the 11/7C for the +6/-6 alteration instead of 55C.[1]

It shares the same exact symbol system as the Athenian notation for just intonation or Medium-precision JI notation.[1]

Because it uses the entire Athenian system (except for since it tempers out 1240029/1239040), it allows no accidental enharmonic respellings.

Ups-and-downs notation

The 5-up (quup) alteration neatly maps to the pythagorean-septimal comma.

31edo-based meantone notation

Since 217 = 31 × 7, one could base the notation on its inherited meantone fifth 126\217 (18\31) instead of its best fifth.

This could be useful when 31edo is used as a base tuning, where the whole palette of 217edo is only used to provide subtle inflections of the 31edo pitches, similar to how one might use 159edo to provide subtle corrections of 53edo pitches. It also can be written with SZ half-sharps and up/down. The main drawback of this notation is that 3/2 is no longer P5 but ^P5 , so that ~4:5:6 is from C written as C-E-^G, compared to C-^<E-G to the patent val chain-of-fifths ups-and-downs notation.

7edo-based whitewood notation

Since 217 = 7 × 31, one could use the inherited whitewood fifth 124\217, ditch sharps and flats, and instead use ups and downs to represent pitch deviations from the 7edo nominals. Since 31=15*2+1, all pitches can be notated with ups, downs, quips and quids. ~4:5:6 becomes C-^^^>E-^^^G.

Ringer 217

217edo is the basis for an exceptional Ringer scale that maps an unusually very large amount of the harmonic series (without having to omit any other harmonics) compared to other edos in this size range. Specifically, it maps the complete mode 167 of the harmonic series, corresponding to the entire 333-odd-limit. As 217 = 31 × 7, this can be used to derive 7 possible 31nejis.

167:168:337/2:169:339/2:170:341/2:171:687/4:172:173:347/2:174:349/2:175:351/2:176:353/2:177:178:357/2:179:359/2:180:361/2:181:182:365/2:183:367/2:184:369/2:185:186:373/2:187:375/2:188:189:379/2:190:191:383/2:192:385/2:193:194:389/2:195:196:393/2:197:395/2:198:199:399/2:200:401/2:201:202:203:813/4:204:409/2:205:206:413/2:207:208:417/2:209:210:421/2:211:212:425/2:213:214:429/2:215:216:217:435/2:218:219:439/2:220:221:443/2:222:223:224:449/2:225:226:227:455/2:228:229:459/2:230:231:232:465/2:233:234:469/2:235:236:237:238:239:479/2:240:241:483/2:242:243:244:245:491/2:246:247:248:497/2:249:250:251:252:505/2:253:254:255:256:257:515/2:258:259:260:261:262:263:527/2:264:265:266:267:535/2:268:269:270:271:272:273:274:549/2:275:276:277:278:279:280:281:563/2:282:283:284:285:286:287:288:289:290:291:292:293:294:589/2:295:296:297:298:299:300:301:302:303:304:305:306:307:308:309:310:311:312:313:314:315:316:317:318:319:320:321:322:323:324:325:326:327:328:329:330:331:332:333:334

Deriving 31nejis

This section shows how one can programmatically derive the 7 possible 31nejis aforementioned through use of User:Godtone's copyleft Python 3 code:

>>> r217text = '[paste the above Ringer 217 data here]'
>>> r217=toneji(r217text) # r217
>>> r31s = [ [r217[7*i+j] for i in range(31)]+[r217[j]*2] for j in range(7) ]
>>> r31s2 = [ toneji(':'.join([ str(h) for h in r31 ]),True) for r31 in r31s ]
>>> for i in range(7):
  print(str(i)+'th: ',':'.join([ str(h) for h in r31s2[i] ]))
