Template talk:Harmonics in equal

From prime harmonics part (it shows odd harmonics somehow) of 121edo#Theory its steps of 21st harmonic is not by adding 3 and 7, was this on purpose?? FilterNashi (talk) 11:51, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

When that table displays composite odd harmonics, it maps them by direct approximation rather than by patent val. In 121edo, the patent val mapping (adding up 3 and 7) is over 50% off for odd 21, and therefore the direct approximation (best) mapping for 21 is different. -- Lériendil (talk) 12:51, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

kinda misleading though. considering there are different temperaments in one single chart. FilterNashi (talk) 13:32, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
