Todo: cleanup, explain edonoi
Most people do not think 7/3 sounds like an equivalence, so there must be some other reason why people are dividing it — some property other than equivalence that makes people want to divide it. Please add to this page an explanation of what that reason is... The page also needs a general overall cleanup. |
The equal division of 7/3 (ed7/3) is a tuning obtained by dividing the septimal minor tenth (7/3) in a certain number of equal steps.
Applications
Division of 7/3 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an equivalence. Many, though not all, ed7/3 scales have a perceptually important false octave, with various degrees of accuracy.
The structural utility of 7/3 (or another tenth) is apparent by being the absolute widest range most generally used in popular songs[citation needed] (and even the range of a dastgah[citation needed]).
Chords and harmonies
Enneatonic scales, especially those equivalent at 7/3, can sensibly take tetrads as the fundamental complete sonorities of a pseudo-traditional functional harmony due to their seventh degree being as structurally important as it is. Many, though not all, of these scales have a perceptually important pseudo (false) octave, with various degrees of accuracy.
Incidentally, one way to treat 7/3 as an equivalence is the use of the 3:4:5:(7) chord as the fundamental complete sonority in a very similar way to the 4:5:6:(8) chord in meantone.
