The harmonic series features counts of pitches of increasing powers of 2 in each next octave, but it also contains counts of pitches of increasing powers of 3 in each next tritave, and counts of pitches in increasing powers of 5 in each next 5/1 interval, and so forth. This is because the harmonic series is equivalent to the log-base-2-of-2-powharmonic series, the log-base-3-of-3-powharmonic series, the log-base-5-of-5-powharmonic series, and so forth (the log-base-b-of-b-powharmonic series).
