If octaves are inserted, 39edt is related to the {{nowrap|49f & 172f}} temperament in the full 13-limit, known as [[Sensamagic clan#Triboh|triboh]], tempering out 245/243, 275/273, 847/845 and 1575/1573, which has mapping [{{val|1 0 0 0 0 0}}, {{val|0 39 57 69 85 91}}]. This has a POTE generator which is an approximate 77/75 of 48.822 cents. 39edt is the ninth [[The Riemann zeta function and tuning#Removing primes|no-twos zeta peak edt]].

← 38edt 39edt 40edt →
Prime factorization 3 × 13
Step size 48.7681 ¢ 
Octave 25\39edt (1219.2 ¢)
Consistency limit 3
Distinct consistency limit 3

39 equal divisions of the tritave, perfect twelfth, or 3rd harmonic (abbreviated 39edt or 39ed3), is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 3/1 into 39 equal parts of about 48.8 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 31/39, or the 39th root of 3. It is also known as the Triple Bohlen–Pierce scale (Triple BP), since it divides each step of the equal-tempered Bohlen–Pierce scale (13edt) into three equal parts.

39edt can be described as approximately 24.606edo. This implies that each step of 39edt can be approximated by 5 steps of 123edo. 39edt contains within it a close approximation of 4ed11/5: every seventh step of 39edt equates to a step of 4ed11/5.

Theory

It is a strong no-twos 13-limit system, a fact first noted by Paul Erlich; in fact it has a better no-twos 13-odd limit relative error than any other edt up to 914edt. Like 26edt and 52edt, it is a multiple of 13edt and so contains the Bohlen-Pierce scale, being contorted in the no-twos 7-limit, tempering out the same BP commas, 245/243 and 3125/3087, as 13edt. In the 11-limit it tempers out 1331/1323 and in the 13-limit 275/273, 1575/1573, and 847/845. An efficient traversal is therefore given by Mintra temperament, which in the 13-limit tempers out 275/273 and 1575/1573 alongside 245/243, and is generated by the interval of 11/7, which serves as a macrodiatonic "superpyth" fourth and splits the BPS generator of 9/7, up a tritave, in three.

If octaves are inserted, 39edt is related to the 49f & 172f temperament in the full 13-limit, known as triboh, tempering out 245/243, 275/273, 847/845 and 1575/1573, which has mapping [1 0 0 0 0 0], 0 39 57 69 85 91]]. This has a POTE generator which is an approximate 77/75 of 48.822 cents. 39edt is the ninth no-twos zeta peak edt.
