191 zeta peak index (abbreviated 191zpi), is the equal-step tuning system obtained from the 191st peak of the Riemann zeta function.

Theory
191zpi can be used as an octave-compressed version of 42edo, with a much better 3/1 and 5/1 compared to 42edo, but at the expense of a worse 7/1.
It is a kind of opposite twin to the scale 42ed257/128. 191zpi makes 42edo into a better 2.3.5.11.13 tuning, while 42ed257/128 makes 42edo into a better 2.3.5.7.17 tuning. They both improve 42edo but in opposite directions.
Harmonic series
191zpi performs well in the no-7s 13-limit, or alternatively in the dual-7 13-limit.

Notation
191zpi can use most notation systems designed for 42edo. See 42edo#Notation.
