5edt is the lowest equal division of the tritave to encompass 5-limit harmony. The available chords are 4:5:12 and 5:12:15; essentially major and minor chords. This is similar to <a class="wiki_link" href="/6edt">6edt</a>, which contains the same chords but with the major thirds transposed an octave higher, and vice versa.<br />
