16-tone equal temperament is the division of the octave into sixteen narrow chromatic semitones. It can be thought of as a Diminished Temperament for it's 1/4 octave period. Also as a Slendro temperament with a supermajor second generator (250cents), or as a Pelog or Mavila temperament generated by (fifths greater than 600 and less than 686 cents). The tuning could be popular for it's easy manageability of 150 cent intervals 3/4, 9/4 and 21/4-tones. | 16-tone equal temperament is the division of the octave into sixteen narrow chromatic semitones.
