The '''equal division of 5/4''' ('''ed5/4''') is a [[tuning]] obtained by dividing the [[5/4|just major third (5/4)]] in a certain number of [[equal]] steps. | The '''equal division of 5/4''' ('''ed5/4''') is a [[tuning]] obtained by dividing the [[5/4|just major third (5/4)]] in a certain number of [[equal]] steps. | ||

Division of 5/4 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an [[equivalence]]. The question of equivalence is still in its infancy. The utility of 5/4 as a base though, is apparent by providing a novel consonance after 3, and being the [[octave reduction|octave-reduced]] basis for [[5-limit]] harmony. Many, if not all, of these scales have a perceptually important pseudo (false) octave, with various degrees of accuracy. | Division of 5/4 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an [[equivalence]].

5/4 is particularly narrow as far as equivalences go and it is difficult to fit consonant chords in it, so we might consider using 5/4<sup>2</sup> = [[25/16]] as the equivalence instead. | 5/4 is particularly narrow as far as equivalences go and it is difficult to fit consonant chords in it, so we might consider using 5/4<sup>2</sup> = [[25/16]] as the equivalence instead. | ||
