The 3-odd-limit can be considered the set of {{W|perfect consonance}}s, containing the unison, octave, perfect fifth, and perfect fourth, which have the simplest [[frequency ratio]]s.

All [[edo]]s are [[consistent]] in the 3-odd-limit, since every edo maps 3/2 and 4/3 to the nearest step by [[patent val]].
 
The {{w|natural density|density}} of edos consistent in the 3-odd-limit to distance ''d'' is expected to be 1/''d'' for {{nowrap| ''d'' ≥ 1 }}.
