Introduction

As of now, EDO impressions are mostly melodic rather than harmonic.

EDO Impressions

Note: They are by no means final!

12: TBA

17: The diatonic scale has a septimal flavor to it, with major thirds sounding nothing like 12edo ones. The minor second is the perfect size melodically, though it may take a while to get used to it.

19: Due to the flat tendency of the system, melody seems to have a feeling that is hard to describe, that you can't replicate with 12edo. So far my biggest issue is that the minor seconds are too wide.

22: TBA

31: TBA

41: Chords are quite consonant, and this system seems to do well in approximating up to the 11-limit. It is a bit complex, however.

53: TBA

72: TBA
