'''[[Ed6|Division of the sixth harmonic]] into 186 equal parts''' (186ED6) is related to [[72edo|72 edo]], but with the 6/1 rather than the 2/1 being just. The octave is about 1.2347 cents stretched and the step size is about 16.6838 cents. It is consistent to the 18-[[integer-limit]], and significantly improves on 72edo's approximation to 13.

186 equal divisions of the 6th harmonic (abbreviated 186ed6) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 6/1 into 186 equal parts of about 16.7 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 61/186, or the 186th root of 6.

186ED6 is related to 72 edo, but with the 6/1 rather than the 2/1 being just, which results in the octaves being stretched by about 1.2347 ¢. It is consistent to the 18-integer-limit, and significantly improves on 72edo's approximation to 13.
