The 9-odd-limit is the set of all rational intervals which can be written as 2k(a/b) where a, b ≤ 9 and k is an integer. To the 7-odd-limit, it adds 3 pairs of octave-reduced intervals involving 9.
Below is a list of all octave-reduced intervals in the 9-odd-limit.
| Ratio | Size (¢) | Color name | Name(s) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10/9 | 182.404 | y2 | yo 2nd | classic whole tone minor whole tone |
| 9/8 | 203.910 | w2 | wa 2nd | Pythagorean whole tone major whole tone |
| 9/7 | 435.084 | r3 | ru 3rd | septimal supermajor third |
| 14/9 | 764.916 | z6 | zo 6th | septimal subminor sixth |
| 16/9 | 996.090 | w7 | wa 7th | Pythagorean minor seventh |
| 9/5 | 1017.596 | g7 | gu 7th | classic minor seventh |
The smallest equal division of the octave which is consistent in the 9-odd-limit is 5edo.
The one which is distinctly consistent in the same is 41edo.
The density of edos consistent in the 9-odd-limit is 1/4[note 1].
