18-EDO does not approximate the 3rd Harmonic at all, unless a 33.333¢-error is considered acceptable. This makes it unsuitable for rendering common-practice music. However, it does offer excellent approximations of 27/25, 9/8, 7/6, 17/14, 21/16, and 15/11 (and their respective reciprocal intervals), so it is still capable of playing consonant music; however, in order to access these consonances, one must take a considerably "non-common-practice" approach.

18-EDO, aka the "third-tone" system, is related to 12-tET by the whole-tone scale (which is 6-EDO), since 18=6*3 and 12=6*2; hence a 12-tET "whole tone" is divided into 3 equal parts in 18-EDO. Since 18=9*2, 18-EDO contains two sets of 9-EDO, offset from each other by a third-tone. 18-EDO is related to 13-EDO, 21-EDO, 23-EDO, and 28-EDO in that all are "Father" temperaments (they temper out 16/15--the difference between a major third and perfect fourth). It is related to 11-EDO, 15-EDO, 25-EDO, and 29-EDO in that they are all "Amity" temperaments ("Amity" is derived from the acronym of "Acute Minor Thirds", meaning a minor third sharper than 6/5 but still flatter than a neutral third).</pre></div>

18-EDO does not approximate the 3rd Harmonic at all, unless a 33.333¢-error is considered acceptable. This makes it unsuitable for rendering common-practice music. However, it does offer excellent approximations of 27/25, 9/8, 7/6, 17/14, 21/16, and 15/11 (and their respective reciprocal intervals), so it is still capable of playing consonant music; however, in order to access these consonances, one must take a considerably "non-common-practice" approach.

<span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">**Relationship to Other EDOs** </span>
18-EDO, aka the "third-tone" system, is related to 12-tET by the whole-tone scale (which is 6-EDO), since 18=6*3 and 12=6*2; hence a 12-tET "whole tone" is divided into 3 equal parts in 18-EDO. Since 18=9*2, 18-EDO contains two sets of 9-EDO, offset from each other by a third-tone. 18-EDO is related to 13-EDO, 21-EDO, 23-EDO, and 28-EDO in that all are "Father" temperaments (they temper out 16/15--the difference between a major third and perfect fourth). It is related to 11-EDO, 15-EDO, 25-EDO, and 29-EDO in that they are all "Amity" temperaments ("Amity" is derived from the acronym of "Acute Minor Thirds", meaning a minor third sharper than 6/5 but still flatter than a neutral third).

18-EDO does not approximate the 3rd Harmonic at all, unless a 33.333¢-error is considered acceptable. This makes it unsuitable for rendering common-practice music. However, it does offer excellent approximations of 27/25, 9/8, 7/6, 17/14, 21/16, and 15/11 (and their respective reciprocal intervals), so it is still capable of playing consonant music; however, in order to access these consonances, one must take a considerably &quot;non-common-practice&quot; approach.<br />

<span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><strong>Relationship to Other EDOs</strong> </span><br />
18-EDO, aka the &quot;third-tone&quot; system, is related to 12-tET by the whole-tone scale (which is 6-EDO), since 18=6*3 and 12=6*2; hence a 12-tET &quot;whole tone&quot; is divided into 3 equal parts in 18-EDO. Since 18=9*2, 18-EDO contains two sets of 9-EDO, offset from each other by a third-tone. 18-EDO is related to 13-EDO, 21-EDO, 23-EDO, and 28-EDO in that all are &quot;Father&quot; temperaments (they temper out 16/15--the difference between a major third and perfect fourth). It is related to 11-EDO, 15-EDO, 25-EDO, and 29-EDO in that they are all &quot;Amity&quot; temperaments (&quot;Amity&quot; is derived from the acronym of &quot;Acute Minor Thirds&quot;, meaning a minor third sharper than 6/5 but still flatter than a neutral third).<br />
