When used as a generator, it approximates [[7edo]] as the 6th note of the scale; the difference between 5\7 and 105/64 is 0. | When used as a generator, it approximates [[7edo]] as the 6th note of the scale; the difference between 5\7 and 105/64 is 0.048¢. In addition, it only differs from the [[64/39|large tridecimal neutral sixth (64/39)]] by a [[4096/4095|schismina (4096/4095)]]. When we also consider that 105/64 can be thought of as the octave reduced greatest common factor of 3, 5, and 7, 105/64 and its octave equivalents might be used to tune 7edo on a stringed instrument via [[harmonic]]s, though so far this idea has not been tested. | ||
