One step of 31edo, measuring about 38.7¢, is called a [[diesis]] because it stands in for several intervals called "dieses" (such as [[128/125]] and [[648/625]]) which are tempered out in [[12edo]]. The diesis is a defining sound of 31edo; when it does not appear directly in a scale, it often shows up as the difference between two or more intervals of a similar size. The diesis is demonstrated in [[SpiralProgressions]]. [[Zhea Erose]]'s 31edo music uses the interval frequently. | One step of 31edo, measuring about 38.7¢, is called a [[diesis]] because it stands in for several intervals called "dieses" (such as [[128/125]] and [[648/625]]) which are tempered out in [[12edo]].

31edo is close to a circle made by stacking 31 pure [[17/13]] subfourths. A circle of 31 pure 17/13's closes with an error of only 2.74 cents ([[relative error]] 7.1%). | |||
31edo is the 11th [[prime numbers|prime]] EDO, following [[29edo]] and coming before [[37edo]]. | 31edo is the 11th [[prime numbers|prime]] EDO, following [[29edo]] and coming before [[37edo]]. | ||
