The '''equal division of 16/9''' ('''ed16/9''') is a [[tuning]] obtained by dividing the [[16/9|Pythagorean minor seventh (16/9)]] in a certain number of [[equal]] steps. | The '''equal division of 16/9''' ('''ed16/9''') is a [[tuning]] obtained by dividing the [[16/9|Pythagorean minor seventh (16/9)]] in a certain number of [[equal]] steps. An ed16/9 can be generated by taking every other tone of an [[ed4/3]], so even-numbered ed16/9's are integer ed4/3's. | ||
Division of 16/9 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an [[equivalence]]. The utility of 16/9 (or another seventh) as a base though, is apparent by being used at the base of so much modern tonal harmony. | Division of 16/9 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an [[equivalence]].
