Twenty one equal divisions of the octave provides the sonic fingerprint of the augmented and 7-edo family, while also giving a some higher harmony possibilities and fun intervals like the apotome, and the medium magic diesis. The system can be treated as three intertwining 7-edo or "equi-heptatonic" scales, or as seven 3-edo ''augmented'' triads. | Twenty one equal divisions of the octave provides the sonic fingerprint of the augmented and 7-edo family, while also giving a some higher harmony possibilities and fun intervals like the apotome, and the medium magic diesis.
