Instead of assuming the patent val for N-edo comes from an integer N, we could define a patent val for X-edo, where X is any real number, in just the same way. For instance, the [[The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning#The%20Z%20function|Z-function]] maximum at 48.9451 leads to a 13-limit X-edo val of <49 78 114 137 169 181|, whereas the minimum at 49.1412 leads to an X-edo val of <49 78 114 138 170 182|. Meanwhile, the patent val, which is the X-edo val for X=49.0000 exactly, is <49 78 114 138 170 181|.</pre></div> | Instead of assuming the patent val for N-edo comes from an integer N, we could define a patent val for X-edo, where X is any real number, in just the same way.

The patent val for some EDO is the val that you obtain by simply finding the closest rounded-off approximation to each prime in the tuning. For example, the patent val for 17-EDO is &lt;17 27 39|, indicating that the closest mapping for 2/1 is 17 steps, the closest mapping for 3/1 is 27 steps, and the closest mapping for 5/1 is 39 steps. This means, if octaves are pure, that 3/2 is 706 cents, which is what you get if you round off 3/2 to the closest location in 17-equal, and that 5/4 is 353 cents, which is what you get is you round off 5/4 to the closest location in 17-equal. This val can be extended to the case where the number of steps in an octave is a real number rather than an integer; for instance the 7-limit patent val for 16.9 is &lt;17 27 39 47|, since 16.9 * log2(7) = 47.444, which rounds down to 47.<br /> | The patent val for some EDO is the val that you obtain by simply finding the closest rounded-off approximation to each prime in the tuning.

Instead of assuming the patent val for N-edo comes from an integer N, we could define a patent val for X-edo, where X is any real number, in just the same way.
