Original Wikitext content:

=The Bohlen-Pierce scale= 

The Bohlen-Pierce scale is a [[nonoctave]] scale, a 13-part equal division of the perfect-twelfth (3/1). Each step is about 146 ¢, making it a [[macrotonal]] scale.

It was discovered independently by Heinz Bohlen, John Pierce, Kees van Prooijen, and perhaps others, usually noticed for its good approximation of odd-number just ratios 3:5, 5:7, 3:7, etc.
