This page presents a novelty topic.
It may contain ideas which are less likely to find practical applications in music, or numbers or structures that are arbitrary or exceedingly small, large, or complex. Novelty topics are often developed by a single person or a small group. As such, this page may also contain idiosyncratic terms, notation, or conceptual frameworks. |

Theory
Since 540 = 2 × 270 and 540 = 45 × 12, it contains 270edo and 12edo as subsets, both belonging to the zeta peak edos, zeta integral edos and zeta gap edos sequences. It is enfactored in the 13-limit, with the same tuning as 270edo, but it makes for a reasonable 17-, 19- and 23-limit system, and perhaps beyond. It is, however, no longer consistent in the 15-odd-limit, all because of 15/13 being 1.14 cents sharp of just.
