'''10EDT''' is the [[Edt|equal division of the third harmonic (tritave)]] into ten parts of 190.1955 [[cent|cents]] each, corresponding to 6.3093 [[edo]]. It is related to the pocus temperament, which tempers out 169/168, 225/224, and 245/243 in the 2.3.5.7.13 subgroup.

== Theory ==
10edt has very accurate 5-limit harmony for such a small number of steps per tritave, most notably the [[5/4]] inherited from 5edt. 10edt introduces some new harmonic properties though — such as the 571 cent tritone, which can function as [[7/5]]. We can use this to readily construct chords such as 4:5:7:12, although the [[7/4]], being 18 cents flat, does considerable damage to the consonance of this chord.
10edt also splits the major third in half, categorizing this tuning as a fringe variety of "meantone" temperament.
One step of 10edt can serve as the generator for [[pocus]] temperament, a [[Temperament merging|merge]] of [[sensamagic]] and 2.3.5.7.13 [[catakleismic]], which tempers out [[169/168]], [[225/224]], and [[245/243]] in the 2.3.5.7.13 subgroup.
