The perfect fifth is almost perfectly equal to the just interval 3/2, with only a 0.07 cent difference! 53EDO can be considered an extended Pythagorean tuning using the notes: 0, 4, 9, 13, 18, 22, 26/27, 31, 35, 40, 44, 49, 53. The thirds are close to just as well, and therefore 5-limit tuning can closely be approximated using the notes: 0, __5__, 9, __14__, __17__, 22, 26/27, 31, __36__, __39__, 44, __48__, 53. | The perfect fifth is almost perfectly equal to the just interval 3/2, with only a 0.07 cent difference! 53EDO can be considered an extended Pythagorean tuning using the notes: 0, 4, 9, 13, 18, 22, 26/27, 31, 35, 40, 44, 49, 53.
