Division of 11/2 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an [[equivalence]] | Division of 11/2 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an [[equivalence]]. Many, though not all, of these scales have a perceptually important [[Pseudo-octave|false octave]], with various degrees of accuracy. | ||
Ed11/2s are a natural way to equalise and standardise any scale that repeats every 2940 to 2960 [[cents]], or that happens to be finite and simply ends between 2940 and 2960 cents above the [[root]]. It is most likely to be [[empirical tuning]]s that stumble into those properties, so a main use case for ed11/2 is approximating and deconstructing empirical tunings. | Ed11/2s are a natural way to equalise and standardise any scale that repeats every 2940 to 2960 [[cents]], or that happens to be finite and simply ends between 2940 and 2960 cents above the [[root]].
