=== Octave stretch === | |||
42edo’s poor 3rd and 5th harmonics can be greatly improved through [[octave stretching]] or [[octave shrinking]]. Both approaches work about equally well but in opposite directions, giving two quite different flavors of tuning to play with. | |||
Stretched versions of 42edo include: | |||
* [[zpi|189zpi]] (~41.83edo) | |||
* [[Ed257/128#42ed257/128|42ed257/128]] | |||
Compressed versions of 42edo include | |||
* [[zpi|191zpi]] (~42.19edo) | |||
* [[Ed255/128#42ed255/128|42ed255/128]] | |||
