'''37afdo''' ([[AFDO|arithmetic frequency division of the octave]]), or '''37odo''' ([[otonal division]] of the octave), divides the octave into 37 parts of 1/37 each. It is a superset of [[36afdo]] and a subset of [[38afdo]]. As a scale it may be known as [[Harmonic mode|mode 37 of the harmonic series]] or the [[Overtone scale #Over-n scales|Over-37]] scale.

It is the first odd afdo in which both fifths (all odd afdos being either dual-fifth or fifthless) are diatonic, and has the incredibly accurate [[44/37]] quarter-octave.
It is the first odd-numbered mode in which both fifths (all odd-numbered modes being either dual-fifth or fifthless) are diatonic, and has the incredibly accurate [[44/37]] quarter-octave.

Harmonics 37–74
Prime factorization 37 (prime)
Dual sharp fifth 56/37 (717.482c)
Dual flat fifth 55/37 (686.288c)

The harmonic segment 37::74 (also harmonics 37–74) consists of harmonics 37 through 74 (37:38:…:74) and spans one octave above the root. Used as a scale, it is also called mode 37 of the harmonic series.

It is the first odd-numbered mode in which both fifths (all odd-numbered modes being either dual-fifth or fifthless) are diatonic, and has the incredibly accurate 44/37 quarter-octave.
