53 equal divisions of the 7th harmonic (abbreviated 53ed7) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 7/1 into 53 equal parts of about 63.6 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 71/53, or the 53rd root of 7.

Theory

53ed7 is related to 19edo, 30edt, and Carlos Beta, but with the 7/1 rather than the 2/1 being just. The octave is about 7.6923 cents stretched. The patent val has a generally sharp tendency for harmonics up to 16, with exception for 11th harmonic.
