41edo is the second smallest equal division (after [[29edo]]) whose perfect fifth is closer to just intonation than that of [[12edo]], and is the seventh [[ | 41edo is the second smallest equal division (after [[29edo]]) whose perfect fifth is closer to just intonation than that of [[12edo]], and is the seventh [[zeta integral edo]] after 31; it is not, however, a [[zeta gap edo]]. This has to do with the fact that it can deal with the [[11-limit]] fairly well, and the [[13-limit]] perhaps close enough for government work, though its [[~]][[13/10]] is 14 cents sharp. Anyway, it is [[consistent]] in the [[15-odd-limit]], or the no-17's [[21-odd-limit]]. In fact, ''all'' of its intervals between 100 and 1100 cents in size are 15-odd-limit [[consonance]]s, although 16\41 arguably manifests itself as [[21/16]] rather than 13/10. Apart from the full 13-limit, it is even more prominent as a 2.3.5.7.11.19.29.31 [[subgroup temperament]] for its size, and perhaps the smallest system with a satisfactory model of the [[9-odd-limit]] because it is the smallest edo to tune the [[9-odd-limit]] distinctly consistent. | ||

Various 13-limit [[magic family|magic extensions]] are supported by 41: 13-limit magic, and less successfully necromancy and witchcraft, all merge into one in 41edo tuning. The 41f val provides a superb tuning for sorcery, giving a less-complex version of the 13-limit, and the 41ef val likewise works well for telepathy; telepathy and sorcery merging into one however not in 41edo but in [[22edo]]. 41edo is also a great [[tetracot]] tuning, and works as an alternative to [[34edo]] due to a much better approximation to the 7th harmonic, and supporting [[monkey]], [[bunya]] and [[octacot]] simultaneously. All three of these extend to the [[11-limit]] by way of interpreting the flat [[10/9]] as an [[11/10]] by tempering [[100/99]]. Note that this equivalence is especially nice in 41edo due to also giving a more accurate interpretation of this comma-flat whole tone as a [[21/19]]. | ||
