'''43edo''' divides the [[octave]] into 43 [[equal]] parts. It is strongly associated with [[meantone]] temperament, especially 1/5-meantone. One step of | '''43edo''' divides the [[octave]] into 43 [[equal]] parts. It is strongly associated with [[meantone]] temperament, especially 1/5-meantone. One step of 43edo was named ''[[méride]]'' by Joseph Sauveur (1653-1716) in 1696. The méride and eptaméride were the first logarithmic interval measures proposed. Sauveur favoured 43-tone equal temperament because the small intervals are well represented in it. <ref>[http://www.huygens-fokker.org/docs/measures.html Stichting Huygens-Fokker: Logarithmic Interval Measures]</ref> | ||
