8EDF (8ED3/2) is the equal division of the fifth into 8 steps of 87.7444 cents each, making it very nearly 88cET. It is related to the octacot temperament. 8EDF corresponds to 13.6761 edo (similar to every third step of 41edo).

Intervals

8EDF can be notated either using sesquitave notation (the notation repeats every period, i.e. just diatonic fifth), or using double sesquitave notation (the notation repeats every two periods, i.e. major diatonic ninth, interpreting it as 16edIX).

The naturals result from a semiwolf generator (~7/6). For sesquitave notation, letters A-E can be used. For double sesquitave notation, Greek numerals 1-10 can be used (Α,Β,Γ,Δ,Ε,Ϛ/Ϝ,Ζ,Η,Θ,Ι).
