31 equal divisions of the 6th harmonic (abbreviated 31ed6) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 6/1 into 31 equal parts of about 100 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 61/31, or the 31st root of 6.

Theory

31ed6 is not a true xenharmonic tuning; it is a slightly stretched version (with an octave of 1200.8 cents) of the normal 12edo, similar to 19ed3. It is very nearly identical to 12edo, but with the 6/1 rather than the 2/1 being just.
