{{ED intro}}


The '''46 equal temperament''', often abbreviated '''46-tET''', '''46-EDO''', or '''46-ET''', is the scale derived by dividing the [[octave]] into 46 equally-sized steps. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 26.087 [[cent|cents]], an interval close in size to [[66/65]], the interval from [[13/11]] to [[6/5]].
== Theory ==
In the opinion of some, 46edo is the first equal division to deal adequately with the [[13-limit]], though others award that distinction to [[41edo]] or [[53edo]]. 46edo's fifth is slightly sharp of just, which some people (e.g. [[Margo Schulter]]) prefer, sometimes strongly, over both the [[3/2|just fifth]] and fifths of temperaments with flat fifths, such as meantone. Many say that sharp fifths give a characteristic bright sound to 5-limit triads, and consider the sound of meantone triads to be more mellow in comparison. 46edo is not a [[zeta peak edo]], but it is a [[zeta gap edo]]. It is distinctly [[consistent]] in the [[9-odd-limit]], and it is consistent to the [[13-odd-limit]] or the no-15 no-19 [[23-odd-limit]].
 
46edo is also notable for being the smallest edo to approximate odd harmonics 1–13 with less than 25% [[relative interval error|relative error]].
 
[[Magic22 as srutis #Shrutar.5B22.5D_as_srutis|Shrutar22 as srutis]] describes a possible use of 46edo for [[Indian]] music.

{{Harmonics in equal|46|columns=11|start=12|collapsed=true|title=Approximation of prime harmonics in 46edo (continued)}}
 
=== As a tuning of other temperaments ===
46edo is a superb tuning for [[sensi]] and [[leapday]]. It also [[support]]s but tunes less optimally [[valentine]], [[shrutar]], [[rodan]], and [[unidec]]. The [[11-odd-limit]] [[minimax tuning]] for valentine, (11/7)<sup>1/10</sup>, is only 0.01 cents flat of 3\46, but [[77edo]] has a lower average error overall.
 
=== Subsets and supersets ===
46edo can be treated as two circles of [[23edo]] separated by an interval of 26.087 cents. Supersets [[414edo]] and [[460edo]] are also notable for their high consistency.

! Approximate ratios<ref name="interval ratios" group="note">{{safesubst:Subgroup note|limit=2.3.5.7.11.13.17.23-subgroup}} However, ratios of 15 are not included here, as except for 15/8 and 16/15 themselves 46edo has intervals involving the 15th harmonic poorly approximated in general. This is because, while the 3rd and 5th harmonics are sharp and their deviations from just intonation add up, 7, 11, and 13 are all tuned flat, making the difference even larger. This prevents it from being [[consistent]] in the [[15-odd-limit]], as there is a discrepancy approximating [[15/13]] and [[26/15]]&mdash;9\46 is closer to 15/13 by a hair, but 10\46 represents the difference between 46edo's 15/8 and 13/8 and is more likely to appear in chords actually functioning as 15/13.</ref>

[[Rank two temperaments]] it supports include [[sensi]], [[valentine]], [[shrutar]], [[rodan]], [[leapday]] and [[unidec]]. The [[11-limit]] [[Target_tunings|minimax]] tuning for valentine temperament, (11/7)<sup>1/10</sup>, is only 0.01 cents flat of 3\46 octaves. In the opinion of some, 46et is the first equal division to deal adequately with the [[13-limit]], though others award that distinction to [[41edo]]. In fact, while 41 is a [[The_Riemann_Zeta_Function_and_Tuning #Zeta EDO lists|zeta integral edo]] but not a [[The_Riemann_Zeta_Function_and_Tuning #Zeta EDO lists|zeta gap edo]], 46 is zeta gap but not zeta integral.

The fifth of 46 equal is 2.39 cents sharp, which some people (e.g. [[Margo Schulter]]) prefer, sometimes strongly, over both the [[3/2|just fifth]] and fifths of temperaments with flat fifths, such as meantone. It gives a characteristic bright sound to triads, distinct from the mellowness of a meantone triad.

46edo can be treated as two [[23edo]]'s separated by an interval of 26.087 cents.

<nowiki>*</nowiki> Based on treating 46-edo as a 2.3.5.7.11.13.17.23 subgroup, without ratios of 15 (except the superparticulars). 46-edo has the 15th harmony poorly approximated in general, because, while both the 3rd and 5th harmonies are sharp by a fair amount and they add up, all the other primes are flat, making the difference even larger, to the extent that it is not [[consistent]] in the [[15-odd-limit]]. This can be demonstrated with the discrepancy approximating [[15/13]] (and its inversion [[26/15]]). 9\46edo is closer to 15/13 by a hair; 10\46edo represents the difference between, for instance, 46edo's 15/8 and 13/8, and is more likely to appear in chords actually functioning as 15/13.


Combining ups and downs notation with [[Kite's_color_notation|color notation]], qualities can be loosely associated with colors:

All 46edo chords can be named using ups and downs. Alterations are always enclosed in parentheses, additions never are. An up, down or mid immediately after the chord root affects the 3rd, 6th, 7th, and/or the 11th (every other note of a stacked-3rds chord 6-1-3-5-7-9-11-13). Here are the zo, gu, ilo, lu, yo and ru triads:

== Notation ==
=== Stein–Zimmermann–Gould notation ===
[[Stein–Zimmermann–Gould notation]] uses sharps and flats with arrows:
{{Sharpness-sharp5-szg}}
 
=== Kite's ups and downs notation ===
46edo can also be notated with [[Kite's ups and downs notation|Kite's ups and downs]], spoken as up, dup, dudsharp, downsharp, sharp, upsharp, etc., and likewise down, dud, dupflat etc. Note that dudsharp is equivalent to trup (triple-up) and dupflat is equivalent to trud (triple-down).
