21edt contains 6 intervals from [[7edt]] and 2 intervals from [[3edt]], meaning that it introduces 12 new intervals not available in lower edt's. These new intervals allow for construction of strange chords like 9:10:13:16:22:27:30...

21edt contains a 7L7s MOS similar to Whitewood, which I call Ivory. It has a period of 1/7 of the tritave and the generator is one step. The major scale is LsLsLsLsLsLsLs, and the minor scale is sLsLsLsLsLsLsL.


21edt also contains a 4L5s MOS similar to [[BP]], with a 4:1 ratio of large to small; quite exaggerated from the optimal 2:1. Not the best approximations but all within 20 cents, it has 5th (+20c), 7th(-16c), 10th (+2c), 11th (+15c), 13th (-3c), 17th (-14c), 19th (-24 c), 23rd (+6 c), and 37th (-2c) harmonics. For a lower division of the tritave that's quite a constellation! The chord is a little out of tune but it works, you can really sink into it.
