Original Wikitext content:

The 9 equal division of 3, the tritave, divides it into 9 equal steps of size 211.328 cents each. It has a decent 7 and an excellent 13, but a 5 which is 39 cents flat; if octaves were added and it was a third, it would count as a neutral third. The corresponding 5/3 is 845 cents, which is a neutral sixth between 8/5 and 5/3, which is really more a 13/8, though this is allegedly a no-twos tuning. The 3.7.13 subgroup tempers out 351/343 and 2197/2187. 9edt is the third [[@The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning#Removing%20primes|no-twos zeta peak edt]].

Following [[@4edt]], this is the next "Lambda" (BP related) equal division of the tritave; in a certain sense analogous to [[@7edo]] in diatonic music.

This scale is also related to [[@17edo]] by which it may be approximated by playing every third step (the 17edo non-octave whole-tone scale), the discrepancy is only about four cents when it gets to 3/1.

0: 1/1
1: 211.328 cents 9/8
2: 422.657 cents 9/7
3: 633.985 cents 13/9
4: 845.313 cents 5/3
5: 1056.642 cents 9/5
6: 1267.970 cents
7: 1479.298 cents 7/3
8: 1690.627 cents 8/3
9: 3/1
