How did you transform 365.2422edo into 365eeffgghiii? And is it really the ''tropical'' year, or maybe a range of year lengths that would match to 365eeffgghiii? I'm more interested in practical help here, not higher math. Thanks in advance for providing some insight. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 12:03, 3 April 2022 (UTC)

: Oh, there is a whole lore of math behind what is considered the "tropical" year, but idealistically it is possible to calculate the "tropical" year as the average of equinoctial and solstitial year lengths, which as of present era in solar days is 365d 5h 48m 45s, and in atomic days is about the same value over millions of years. Also, there's only 10 octaves in the human hearing range so the difference is microscopical.

As for the val, I've simply calculated the octave compression that would come out of (365/365.2422)*1200, and then went to x31eq temperament finder and found a val closest to my desired optimal TE stretch. That val in question was 365eeffgghiii, and if compressed octave were 365 steps, pure octave would be 365.2422 steps. [[User:Eliora|Eliora]] ([[User talk:Eliora|talk]]) 20:15, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
