An '''equal division of the interval''' ('''EDI''') is when an interval is split into equal sub-intervals. This method can be used to expand the sound palette of scales beyond just the notes in the scale, or as a way of forming non-octave scales. | An '''equal division of the interval''' ('''EDI''') is when an interval is split into equal sub-intervals.

A division of an interval into sub-intervals can be referred to according to the larger interval; e.g. dividing a perfect 5th into smaller intervals is referred to as [[ | A division of an interval into sub-intervals can be referred to according to the larger interval; e.g. dividing a perfect 5th into smaller intervals is referred to as [[EDF|EDF or EDP5]]. To notate the number of sub-intervals (e.g. a perfect 5th split into 2 equal intervals), add a slash and the number of intervals: EDF/2 or EDP5/2. | ||
