A tuning with ''n'' equal divisions of the octave is usually called "''n''-edo" ("''n''-EDO"). For instance, the predominant tuning system in the world today is [[12edo]] (12-EDO). | A tuning with ''n'' equal divisions of the octave is usually called "''n''-edo" ("''n''-EDO").

An | An equal (pitch) division of the octave is the most common type of [[EPD|equal (pitch) division]], which is a kind of [[equal-step tuning]]. Therefore, it is also a kind of [[Arithmetic tunings|arithmetic]] and [[Harmonotonic tunings|harmonotonic]] tuning. | ||
