For nonoctave equaves: '''k equal divisions of p/q''' (abbreviated '''kedp/q''') is a non-octave tuning system based on dividing p/q into k equal pieces of exactly/about s¢ each. Each step of kedp/q represents the frequency ratio of (p/q)<sup>1/k</sup> or the kth root of p/q.
The intro displayed depends on the equave being divided.
 
* Common abbreviations
For edos: '''k equal divisions of the octave''' (abbreviated '''kedo'''), also called '''k-tone equal temperament''' ('''ktet''') or '''k equal temperament''' ('''ket''') when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into k equal parts of exactly/about each. Each step of kedo represents a frequency ratio of 21/k, or the kth root of 2.
** edo: '''''k'' equal divisions of the octave''' (abbreviated '''''k''edo''' or '''''k''ed2'''), also called '''''k''-tone equal temperament''' ('''''k''tet''') or '''''k'' equal temperament''' ('''''k''et''') when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into ''k'' equal parts of exactly/about each. Each step of kedo represents a frequency ratio of 2<sup>1/''k''</sup>, or the ''k''th root of 2.
 
** edt: '''''k'' equal divisions of the tritave''' or '''twelfth''' (abbreviated '''''k''edt''' or '''''k''ed3''') is a non-octave tuning system that divides the 3rd harmonic, or 3/1, into ''k'' equal parts of exactly/about each. Each step of ''k''edo represents a frequency ratio of 3<sup>1/''k''</sup>, or the ''k''th root of 3.
For edts: '''k equal divisions of the tritave''' or '''twelfth''' (abbreviated '''kedt''' or '''ked3''') is a non-octave tuning system that divides the 3rd harmonic, or 3/1, into k equal parts of exactly/about each. Each step of kedo represents a frequency ratio of 3<sup>1/k</sup>, or the kth root of 3.
** edf: '''''k'' equal divisions of the fifth''' (abbreviated '''''k''edf''' or '''''k''ed3/2''') is a non-octave tuning system that divides the perfect fifth, or 3/2, into ''k'' equal parts of exactly/about each. Each step of ''k''edo represents a frequency ratio of (3/2)<sup>1/''k''</sup>, or the ''k''th root of 3/2.
 
* Equal divisions of a harmonic
For edfs: '''k equal divisions of the fifth''' (abbreviated '''kedf''' or '''ked3/2''') is a non-octave tuning system that divides the perfect fifth, or 3/2, into k equal parts of exactly/about each. Each step of kedo represents a frequency ratio of (3/2)<sup>1/k</sup>, or the kth root of 3/2.
** ed2: same as edo
 
** ed3: same as edt
For nonoctave equaves: '''k equal divisions of p/q''' (abbreviated '''kedp/q''') is a non-octave tuning system that divides p/q into k equal pieces of exactly/about s¢ each. Each step of kedp/q represents the frequency ratio of (p/q)<sup>1/k</sup> or the kth root of p/q.
** ed''h'': '''''k'' equal divisions of the ''h''th harmonic''' (abbreviated '''''k''ed''h''''') is a non-octave tuning system that divides the ''h''th harmonic, or ''h''/1, into ''k'' equal parts of exactly/about s¢ each. Each step of ''k''edh represents a frequency ratio of ''h''<sup>1/''k''</sup>, or the ''k''th root of ''h''.
* Equal divisions of an arbitrary ratio ''p''/''q''
** ed''p''/''q'': '''''k'' equal divisions of ''p''/''q''''' (abbreviated '''''k''ed''p''/''q''''') is a non-octave tuning system that divides ''p''/''q'' into ''k'' equal pieces of exactly/about s¢ each. Each step of ''k''ed''p''/''q'' represents the frequency ratio of (''p''/''q'')<sup>1/''k''</sup>, or the ''k''th root of ''p''/''q''.
* Equal divisions of an arbitrary constant c
** ed''c'': '''''k'' equal divisions of ''c''''' (abbreviated '''''k''edc''') is a non-octave tuning system where the interval of r¢ is divided into ''k'' equal pieces of exactly/about s¢ each. Each step of ''k''ed''c'' represents the frequency ratio of ''c''<sup>1/''k''</sup>, or the ''k''th root of ''c''.
* Equal-step tunings - special cases of the above where there is only one division of the harmonic, ratio, or cent value; more typical of intervals smaller than 2/1.
** 1ed''p''/''q'' - '''1 equal division of ''p''/''q''''' (abbreviated '''1ed''p''/''q'''''), also known as '''ambitonal sequence of ''p''/''q''''' (abbreviated '''AS''p''/''q''''') or '''''p''/''q'' equal-step tuning''', is a non-octave tuning system where adjacent pitches are ''p''/''q'', or exactly/about s¢, apart.
** 1ed''c''¢ - '''1 equal division of ''c''¢''' (abbreviated '''1ed''c''¢''' or '''1ed''c''c'''), also known as '''arithmetic pitch sequence of c¢''' (abbreviated '''APS''c''¢''') or '''''c''cET''', is a non-octave tuning system where adjacent pitches are ''c''¢, apart.
