'''161zpi''', the 161th [[zeta peak index]], is a [[Octave shrinking|compressed-octaves]] version of [[37edo]]. It can be thought of as '''37ed1199.1c''' or as '''32.408cet'''.

It has a step size of 32.408 [[cent]]s, and the [[octave]] ([[2/1]]) is tuned slightly impurely to 1199.1 cents.

37edo tunes almost all simple [[harmonic]]s slightly flat by roughly the same amount, so 161zpi is one possible way of correcting for this.
