34edf
34 equal divisions of the perfect fifth (abbreviated 34edf or 34ed3/2) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 3/2 into 34 equal parts of about 20.6 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of (3/2)1/34, or the 34th root of 3/2.
Theory
34edf corresponds to 58.1234…edo. It is related to 58edo, but with the 3/2 rather than the 2/1 being just. The octave is compressed by about 2.5474 cents.
The patent val has a generally flat tendency for harmonics up to 16 (four octaves), with the exception for 5. Unlike 58edo, it is only consistent up to the 15-integer-limit, with discrepancy for the 16th harmonic.
