30afdo (arithmetic frequency division of the octave), or 30odo (otonal division of the octave), divides the octave into thirty parts of 1/30 each. As a scale it may be known as mode 30 of the harmonic series or the Over-30 scale. Due to 30 being 2 × 3 × 5, this AFDO contains many common 5-limit intervals above its root and is extremely useful for common tonal harmony.
