'''33edo''' divides the [[octave]] into 33 equal parts of 36.3636 [[cent]]s each. It is not especially good at representing all rational intervals in the [[7-limit]], but it does very well on the 7-limit [[k*N_subgroups|3*33 subgroup]] 2.27.15.21.11.13. On this subgroup it tunes things to the same tuning as [[99edo]], and as a subgroup patent val it tempers out the same commas. The 99 equal temperaments hemififths, amity, parakleismic, hemiwuerschmidt, ennealimmal and hendecatonic can be reduced to this subgroup and give various possibilities for MOS scales, etc. In particular, the [[Chromatic_pairs#Terrain|terrain]] subgroup temperament can be tuned via the 5\33 generator. The full system of harmony provides the optimal patent val for [[Mint_temperaments#Slurpee|slurpee temperament]] in the 5, 7, 11 and 13 limits. | |||
While relatively uncommon, 33edo is actually quite an interesting system. As a multiple of [[11edo]], it approximates the 7th and 11th harmonics via Andrew Heathwaite's 4L+3s Orgone modes (see [[26edo]]). 33edo also tunes the 13th harmonic slightly flat, allowing it to approximate the 21st and 17th harmonics as well, having an [[3L_7s|3L+7s]] of L=4 s=3. It tunes the perfect fifth about 11 cents flat, leading to a near perfect 10/9. The <33 52 76| or 33c val tempers out 81/80 and so leads to a very flat meantone tuning where the major tone is approximately 10/9 in size. Leaving the scale be would result in a flattone [[5L_2s|5L+2s]] of L=5 s=4 | While relatively uncommon, 33edo is actually quite an interesting system.
