An '''equal division of a non-octave interval''' ('''EDONOI''' or '''edonoi''') is a [[tuning]] obtained by dividing a [[non-octave]] [[interval]] in a certain number of equal steps. In a broader sense, any equal-step tuning that is not an integer [[edo]] is an edonoi.

The most often used edonoi include the equal-tempering of the [[BP|Bohlen-Pierce scale]] (i.e. [[13edt|13 equal divisions of 3]]), the [[Phoenix]] tuning, tunings of [[Carlos Alpha]], [[Carlos Beta|Beta]], and [[Carlos Gamma|Gamma]], the [[19edt|19 equal divisions of 3]], the [[6edf|6 equal divisions of 3/2]], the [[2ed13/10|2 equal divisions of 13/10]], and [[88cET]]. For a more complete gallery, see the "equal divisions" section above.

Some edonoi contain an interval close to [[2/1]] that might function like a stretched or squashed octave — those edonoi can thus be considered variations on edos.
