'''17ed4''' is the [[Ed4|equal division of the double octave]] into 17 parts of 141.18 [[cent|cents]] each, corresponding to 8.5edo or every second step of [[17edo]].

==Theory==

17ed4 is the smallest ED4 to contain a diatonic fifth, in this ~~cas~~ [[17edo]]'s sharp fifth, and it can be used to generate heptatonic (3L 4s<4/1>) and decatonic ([[7L 3s (4/1-equivalent)|7L 3s<4/1>]]) MOS scales with a period of [[4/1]]. The decatonic scale is the more usable of these two scales, corresponding to an octave-repeating pentatonic scale in terms of step sizes, while the heptatonic scale has too large step sizes, corresponding to an octave-repeating tritonic or tetratonic scale in terms of step sizes.
