The 1506 division divides the octave into 1506 parts of 0.7968 cents each. It is a very strong 13 and 17 limit division, since it is the first past 494 with a lower 13-limit [[Tenney-Euclidean_temperament_measures#TE simple badness|relative error]], and likewise the first with a lower 17-limit relative error. Like 494 it is distinctly consistent through the 17 limit. It tends sharp, all of the odd primes to 17 being tuned sharply. A basis for the 13 limit commas is {4096/4095, 6656/6655, 9801/9800, 105644/105625, 371293/371250}, and for the 17-limit commas, {4096/4095, 4914/4913, 5832/5831, 6656/6655, 9801/9800, 28561/28560, 105644/105625}.

The 1506 division divides the octave into 1506 parts of 0.7968 cents each. It is a very strong 13 and 17 limit division, since it is the first past 494 with a lower 13-limit relative error, and likewise the first with a lower 17-limit relative error. Like 494 it is distinctly consistent through the 17 limit. It tends sharp, all of the odd primes to 17 being tuned sharply. A basis for the 13 limit commas is {4096/4095, 6656/6655, 9801/9800, 105644/105625, 371293/371250}, and for the 17-limit commas, {4096/4095, 4914/4913, 5832/5831, 6656/6655, 9801/9800, 28561/28560, 105644/105625}.
