==Theory== 
16-tone equal temperament is the division of the octave into sixteen narrow chromatic semitones. It can be treated as 4 interwoven diminished seven arpeggios, or as 2 interwoven 8-edo scales (narrow 11-limit whole tones which when stacked produce minor third intervals). 16-tone has the same stacked minor thirds diminished seventh scale/chord available in 12, and It is often cited that the most consonant chords involve the tritone. (However with the correct timbre, one can suggest consonance with any tuning.)
