Original Wikitext content:

=7 Equal Divisions of the Octave= 
==="neutral diatonic"=== 

7-edo divides the 1200-[[cents|cent]] octave into 7 equal parts, making its smallest interval [[171.428¢]], or the seventh root of 2.

==Intervals in 7-edo== 
|| **Interval,
in fifths of
an octave** || **Interval
in ¢** || **Closest
diatonic
interval name** || **The "neighborhood" of just intervals** ||
|| 1 || 0.0 || unison / prime || exactly 1/1 ||
|| 2 || 171,429 || second || 6,424 c from Ptolemy (neutral) second 11/10
3,215 c from second 54/49
-10,976 c from (Didymus) major second (small whole tone) 10/9 ||
|| 3 || 342,857 || third || -4,551 c from neutral third 11/9 ||
|| 4 || 514,286 || fourth || 16,241 c from just fourth 4/3 (498,045 c)
-5,265 c from wide fourth 27/20 ||
|| 5 || 685,714 || fifth || 5,265 c from narrow fifth 40/27
-16,241 c from just fifth 3/2 (701,955 c) ||
|| 6 || 857,143 || sixth || 4,551 c from neutral sixth 18/11 ||
|| 7 || 1028,571 || seventh || 10,975 c from (Didymus) minor seventh 9/5
-3,216 c from seventh 49/27
-6,425 c from neutral seventh 20/11 ||
|| 8 || 1200.0 || eighth || exactly 2/1 ||


==Related scales== 
* Related in a lateral way to traditional Thai music.

==Notation== 
* Notatable on a five-line staff without accidentals.


==Harmony== 

Major and minor collide in every way.

==Melody== 
Neutral feel betweem whole tone scale and major/minor diatonic scale. The second 171,429 c works well as a basic step for melodic progression.
Step from seventh to octave is too large for the leading tone.
