In music, //22 equal temperament//, called 22-tet, 22-edo, or 22-et, is the scale derived by dividing the [[octave]] into 22 equally large steps. Each step represents a frequency ratio of the twenty-second root of 2, or 54.55 [[cent]]s.

The idea of dividing the octave into 22 steps of equal size seems to have originated with nineteenth century music theorist RHM Bosanquet. Inspired by the division of the octave into 22 unequal parts in the [[Indian|music theory of India]], Bosenquet noted that such an equal division was capable of representing 5-limit music with tolerable accuracy. In this he was followed in the twentieth century by theorist José Würschmidt, who noted it as a possible next step after [[19edo|19 equal temperament]], and J. Murray Barbour in his classic survey of tuning history, ''Tuning and Temperament''.

The 22-et system is in fact the third equal division, after 12 and 19, which is capable of approximating the [[5-limit]] to within a TE error of 4 cents/oct. While not an integral or gap edo it at least qualifies as a [[The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning#Zeta%20EDO%20lists|zeta peak]]. Moreover, there is more to it than just the 5-limit; unlike 12 or 19 it is able to approximate the [[7-limit|7-]] and [[11-limit]]s to within 3 cents/oct of error. While [[31edo|31 equal temperament]] does much better, 22-et still allows the use of these higher-limit harmonies, and in fact 22 is the smallest equal division to represent the 11-limit[[consistent| consistent]]ly. Furthermore, 22-et, unlike 12 and [[19edo|19]], is not a [[Regular Temperaments#meantone|meantone]] system. The net effect is that 22 allows, and to some extent even forces, the exploration of less familiar musical territory, yet is small enough that it can be used in live performances with suitably designed instruments, such as 22-tone guitars and the like.

22-et can also be treated as adding harmonics 3 and 5 to 11-EDO's 2.7.9.11.15.17 subgroup, making it a (rather accurate) 2.3.5.7.11.17 subgroup temperament. Let us also mind it's approximation of the 31st harmonic is within half a cent, which is fairly accurate. It also approximates some intervals involving the 29th harmonic well, especially 29/24, which is also matched within half a cent. This leaves us with 2.3.5.7.11.17.29.31.

22-et is very close to an extended "quarter-comma superpyth", a tuning analogous to quarter-comma meantone except that it tempers out the septimal comma 64:63 instead of the syntonic comma 81:80. Because of this it has nearly pure septimal major thirds (9:7).

==Intervalic Naming Systems== 
The intervals of 22 EDO may be thought of as a system arising from both Superpyth and Porcupine temperament therefore, it makes sense to categorize each on as major and minor of each temperament. s indicates superpyth, p indicates Porcupine, because p now represents procupine and not perfect, P in perfect intervals is no longer used in this system. Instead the number is used without P and is read as either just the number or "Natural". Example: P5 becomes 5 or N5 = Perfect fifth becomes Natural fifth.

22edo intervals can also be notated using [[Ups and Downs Notation|ups and downs]]: The keyboard runs C * * * D * * * E F * * * G * * * A * * * B C.

Another possible notation uses the porcupine generator to generate the notation as well. The 2nd and 7th are perfect, and the 4th and 5th are imperfect like the 3rd and 6th. The keyboard runs D * * E * * F * * G * * * A * * B * * C * * D.

Yet another notation is pentatonic. This is the only way to use a chain-of-fifths notation without additional accidentals. The pentatonic degrees are unison, subthird, fourthoid, fifthoid, subseventh and octoid. The keyboard runs D * * * E * * * * G * * * A * * * * C * * * D.

==Properties of 22 equal temperament== 

Possibly the most striking characteristic of 22-et to those not used to it is that it does **not** "temper out" the syntonic comma of 81/80, and therefore is not a system of [[Regular Temperaments#meantone|meantone]] temperament. This means that 22 distinguishes a number of Pythagorean and 5-limit intervals that 12-EDO does not distinguish, such as the two whole tones 9/8 and 10/9. Indeed, these distinctions are exaggerated in comparison to 5-limit JI and many more accurate temperaments such as [[34edo]], [[41edo]] and [[53edo]].

The diatonic scale it produces is instead derived from [[superpyth]] temperament, which despite having the same melodic structure as meantone's diatonic scale (LLsLLLs or, [[5L 2s]]), has thirds approximating 9/7 and 7/6, rather than 5/4 and 6/5. This means that the septimal comma of 64/63 vanishes, rather than the syntonic comma of 81/80, which is one of the core features of 22-EDO. Superpyth is melodically interesting for having a quasi-equal pentatonic scale (as the large whole tone and subminor third are rather close in size) and a more uneven heptatonic scale, as compared with 12-equal and meantone systems: step patterns 4 4 5 4 5 and 4 4 1 4 4 4 1, respectively.

It additionally tempers out the porcupine comma or maximal diesis of 250/243, which means that 22-EDO supports [[porcupine]] temperament. The generator for porcupine is is a flat minor whole tone of [[10_9|10/9]], two of which is a slightly sharp [[6_5|6/5]], and three of which is a slightly flat [[4_3|4/3]], implying the existence of an equal-step tetrachord, which is characteristic of Porcupine. Porcupine is notable for being the 5-limit temperament lowest in [[badness]] which is //not// approximated by the familiar 12-tone equal temperament, and as such represents one excellent point of departure for examining the harmonic properties of 22-EDO. It forms [[MOSScales|MOS]]'s of 7 and 8, which in 22-EDO are tuned respectively as 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 and 3 1 3 3 3 3 3 3 (and their respective modes).

The 164¢ "flat minor whole tone" is a key interval in 22-EDO, in part because it functions as no less than three different consonant ratios in the [[11-limit]]: 10/9, 11/10, and 12/11. It is thus extremely ambiguous and flexible. The trade-off is that it is very much in the cracks of the 12-equal piano, and so for most 12-equal listeners, it takes some getting used to. Simple translations of 5-limit music into 22-EDO can sound very different, with a more complex harmonic quality inevitably arising. 22edo does not contain a neutral third but both the 5-limit thirds have a "neutral-like" quality since they are tempered closer together rather than farther apart as in 12edo.

22-EDO also supports Orwell temperament, which uses the septimal subminor third as a generator (5 degrees) and forms MOS scales with step patterns 3 2 3 2 3 2 3 2 2 and 1 2 2 1 2 2 1 2 2 1 2 2 2. Harmonically, Orwell can be tuned more accurately in other temperaments, such as [[31edo]], [[53edo]] and [[84edo]]. But 22-equal Orwell has a leg-up on the others melodically, as the large and small steps of Orwell[9] are easier to distinguish in 22.

Other 5-limit commas 22-EDO tempers out include the diaschisma, 2048/2025 and the magic comma or small diesis, 3125/3072. In a diaschismic system, such as 12-et or 22-et, the [[diatonic tritone]] [[45_32|45/32]], which is a major third above a [[major whole tone]] representing [[9_8|9/8]], is equated to its inverted form, [[64_45|64/45]]. That the magic comma is tempered out means that 22-et is a [[Regular Temperaments#magic|magic]] system, where five major thirds make up a perfect fifth.

In the 7-limit 22-et tempers out certain commas also tempered out by 12-et; this relates 12 equal to 22 in a way different from the way in which meantone systems are akin to it. Both [[50_49|50/49]], (the [[jubilee comma]]), and [[64_63|64/63]], (the [[septimal comma]]), are tempered out in both systems. Hence because of 50/49 they both equate the two septimal tritones of 7/5 and 10/7, and because of 64/63 they both do not distinguish between a dominant seventh chord and an otonal tetrad. Hence both also temper out (50/49)/(64/63) = 225/224, the [[septimal kleisma]], so that the septimal kleisma augmented triad is a chord of 22-et, as it also is of any meantone tuning. A septimal comma not tempered out by 12-et which 22-et does temper out is 1728/1715, the [[orwell comma]]; and the [[orwell tetrad]] is also a chord of 22-et.

As 22 is divisible by 11, a 22edo instrument can play any music in [[11edo]], in the same way that 12edo can play 6edo (the whole tone scale). 11-equal is interesting for sounding melodically very similar to 12-equal (whole steps, half steps and minor thirds in the familiar 1:2:3 ratio), but harmonically very different, in particular because it lacks perfect fifths/fourths and 5-limit major thirds/minor sixths. Similarly, 22edo is melodically similar to 24edo as both contain quarter-tones and minor, neutral, and major seconds; but 22edo offers much better all-around harmonies than 24. In [[Sagittal]], 11 can be notated as every other note of 22.

===How to Notate 22edo in Sagittal=== 

When 22edo is treated as generated by a cycle of its fifths, the naturals F C G D A E B represent a chain of those 13\22 fifths; consequently, the whole tone comes out to four degrees and the apotome (pythagorean sharp/flat) comes out to three degrees. Three pairs of sagittal symbols, dividing that apotome into three parts, are all that is necessary, and offer plenty of enharmonic equivalents:
[[image:22edo.png]]
This notation is consistent with Sagittal's notation of 5-limit JI harmony: "major" 3rds and 6ths appear as (super)pythagorean intervals flattened by a syntonic comma.

The division of the apotome into three syntonic commas also indicates 22's tempering out of the [[250_243|porcupine comma]] (which is equivalent to three syntonic commas minus a Pythagorean apotome).

=The Decatonic System= 
<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">The decatonic system is an approach of notation based on Paul Erlich's decatonic scales. Unlike typical notation, the decatonic system bases music into a 10 tone scale rather than 7. </span>
<span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">This approach requires an entire re-learning of chords, intervals, and notation but the advantage is that it allows 22 EDO to be notated using only one pair of accidentals, as well as</span><span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">gives the opportunity to escape a heptatonic thinking pattern.</span>

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">
==[[#TOC-Decatonic-Alphabet]]Decatonic Alphabet== 
</span><span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">The system is based on two chains of fifths. One represented by latin letters, the other greek. The two chains can be looked at as two juxtaposed pentatonic scales.</span>

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">Chain 1: C G D A E</span><span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">Chain 2: <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">γ δ α ε β </span></span>

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">The alphabet is ascending order: C<span style="font-family: helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"> δ D ε E γ G α A β C </span></span><span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">

For example G D is a fifth as well as </span><span style="color: #141823; font-family: helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">γ δ. </span></span>

 <br />
In music, <em>22 equal temperament</em>, called 22-tet, 22-edo, or 22-et, is the scale derived by dividing the <a class="wiki_link" href="/octave">octave</a> into 22 equally large steps. Each step represents a frequency ratio of the twenty-second root of 2, or 54.55 <a class="wiki_link" href="/cent">cent</a>s.<br />
<br />
The idea of dividing the octave into 22 steps of equal size seems to have originated with nineteenth century music theorist RHM Bosanquet. Inspired by the division of the octave into 22 unequal parts in the <a class="wiki_link" href="/Indian">music theory of India</a>, Bosenquet noted that such an equal division was capable of representing 5-limit music with tolerable accuracy. In this he was followed in the twentieth century by theorist José Würschmidt, who noted it as a possible next step after <a class="wiki_link" href="/19edo">19 equal temperament</a>, and J. Murray Barbour in his classic survey of tuning history, ''Tuning and Temperament''.<br />
<br />
The 22-et system is in fact the third equal division, after 12 and 19, which is capable of approximating the <a class="wiki_link" href="/5-limit">5-limit</a> to within a TE error of 4 cents/oct. While not an integral or gap edo it at least qualifies as a <a class="wiki_link" href="/The%20Riemann%20Zeta%20Function%20and%20Tuning#Zeta%20EDO%20lists">zeta peak</a>. Moreover, there is more to it than just the 5-limit; unlike 12 or 19 it is able to approximate the <a class="wiki_link" href="/7-limit">7-</a> and <a class="wiki_link" href="/11-limit">11-limit</a>s to within 3 cents/oct of error. While <a class="wiki_link" href="/31edo">31 equal temperament</a> does much better, 22-et still allows the use of these higher-limit harmonies, and in fact 22 is the smallest equal division to represent the 11-limit<a class="wiki_link" href="/consistent"> consistent</a>ly. Furthermore, 22-et, unlike 12 and <a class="wiki_link" href="/19edo">19</a>, is not a <a class="wiki_link" href="/Regular%20Temperaments#meantone">meantone</a> system. The net effect is that 22 allows, and to some extent even forces, the exploration of less familiar musical territory, yet is small enough that it can be used in live performances with suitably designed instruments, such as 22-tone guitars and the like.<br />
<br />
22-et can also be treated as adding harmonics 3 and 5 to 11-EDO's 2.7.9.11.15.17 subgroup, making it a (rather accurate) 2.3.5.7.11.17 subgroup temperament. Let us also mind it's approximation of the 31st harmonic is within half a cent, which is fairly accurate. It also approximates some intervals involving the 29th harmonic well, especially 29/24, which is also matched within half a cent. This leaves us with 2.3.5.7.11.17.29.31.<br />
<br />
22-et is very close to an extended &quot;quarter-comma superpyth&quot;, a tuning analogous to quarter-comma meantone except that it tempers out the septimal comma 64:63 instead of the syntonic comma 81:80. Because of this it has nearly pure septimal major thirds (9:7).<br />

 The intervals of 22 EDO may be thought of as a system arising from both Superpyth and Porcupine temperament therefore, it makes sense to categorize each on as major and minor of each temperament. s indicates superpyth, p indicates Porcupine, because p now represents procupine and not perfect, P in perfect intervals is no longer used in this system. Instead the number is used without P and is read as either just the number or &quot;Natural&quot;. Example: P5 becomes 5 or N5 = Perfect fifth becomes Natural fifth.<br />

Another possible notation uses the porcupine generator to generate the notation as well. The 2nd and 7th are perfect, and the 4th and 5th are imperfect like the 3rd and 6th. The keyboard runs D * * E * * F * * G * * * A * * B * * C * * D.<br />

 <br />
Possibly the most striking characteristic of 22-et to those not used to it is that it does <strong>not</strong> &quot;temper out&quot; the syntonic comma of 81/80, and therefore is not a system of <a class="wiki_link" href="/Regular%20Temperaments#meantone">meantone</a> temperament. This means that 22 distinguishes a number of Pythagorean and 5-limit intervals that 12-EDO does not distinguish, such as the two whole tones 9/8 and 10/9. Indeed, these distinctions are exaggerated in comparison to 5-limit JI and many more accurate temperaments such as <a class="wiki_link" href="/34edo">34edo</a>, <a class="wiki_link" href="/41edo">41edo</a> and <a class="wiki_link" href="/53edo">53edo</a>.<br />
<br />
The diatonic scale it produces is instead derived from <a class="wiki_link" href="/superpyth">superpyth</a> temperament, which despite having the same melodic structure as meantone's diatonic scale (LLsLLLs or, <a class="wiki_link" href="/5L%202s">5L 2s</a>), has thirds approximating 9/7 and 7/6, rather than 5/4 and 6/5. This means that the septimal comma of 64/63 vanishes, rather than the syntonic comma of 81/80, which is one of the core features of 22-EDO. Superpyth is melodically interesting for having a quasi-equal pentatonic scale (as the large whole tone and subminor third are rather close in size) and a more uneven heptatonic scale, as compared with 12-equal and meantone systems: step patterns 4 4 5 4 5 and 4 4 1 4 4 4 1, respectively.<br />
<br />
It additionally tempers out the porcupine comma or maximal diesis of 250/243, which means that 22-EDO supports <a class="wiki_link" href="/porcupine">porcupine</a> temperament. The generator for porcupine is is a flat minor whole tone of <a class="wiki_link" href="/10_9">10/9</a>, two of which is a slightly sharp <a class="wiki_link" href="/6_5">6/5</a>, and three of which is a slightly flat <a class="wiki_link" href="/4_3">4/3</a>, implying the existence of an equal-step tetrachord, which is characteristic of Porcupine. Porcupine is notable for being the 5-limit temperament lowest in <a class="wiki_link" href="/badness">badness</a> which is <em>not</em> approximated by the familiar 12-tone equal temperament, and as such represents one excellent point of departure for examining the harmonic properties of 22-EDO. It forms <a class="wiki_link" href="/MOSScales">MOS</a>'s of 7 and 8, which in 22-EDO are tuned respectively as 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 and 3 1 3 3 3 3 3 3 (and their respective modes).<br />
<br />
The 164¢ &quot;flat minor whole tone&quot; is a key interval in 22-EDO, in part because it functions as no less than three different consonant ratios in the <a class="wiki_link" href="/11-limit">11-limit</a>: 10/9, 11/10, and 12/11. It is thus extremely ambiguous and flexible. The trade-off is that it is very much in the cracks of the 12-equal piano, and so for most 12-equal listeners, it takes some getting used to. Simple translations of 5-limit music into 22-EDO can sound very different, with a more complex harmonic quality inevitably arising. 22edo does not contain a neutral third but both the 5-limit thirds have a &quot;neutral-like&quot; quality since they are tempered closer together rather than farther apart as in 12edo.<br />
<br />
22-EDO also supports Orwell temperament, which uses the septimal subminor third as a generator (5 degrees) and forms MOS scales with step patterns 3 2 3 2 3 2 3 2 2 and 1 2 2 1 2 2 1 2 2 1 2 2 2. Harmonically, Orwell can be tuned more accurately in other temperaments, such as <a class="wiki_link" href="/31edo">31edo</a>, <a class="wiki_link" href="/53edo">53edo</a> and <a class="wiki_link" href="/84edo">84edo</a>. But 22-equal Orwell has a leg-up on the others melodically, as the large and small steps of Orwell[9] are easier to distinguish in 22.<br />
<br />
Other 5-limit commas 22-EDO tempers out include the diaschisma, 2048/2025 and the magic comma or small diesis, 3125/3072. In a diaschismic system, such as 12-et or 22-et, the <a class="wiki_link" href="/diatonic%20tritone">diatonic tritone</a> <a class="wiki_link" href="/45_32">45/32</a>, which is a major third above a <a class="wiki_link" href="/major%20whole%20tone">major whole tone</a> representing <a class="wiki_link" href="/9_8">9/8</a>, is equated to its inverted form, <a class="wiki_link" href="/64_45">64/45</a>. That the magic comma is tempered out means that 22-et is a <a class="wiki_link" href="/Regular%20Temperaments#magic">magic</a> system, where five major thirds make up a perfect fifth.<br />
<br />
In the 7-limit 22-et tempers out certain commas also tempered out by 12-et; this relates 12 equal to 22 in a way different from the way in which meantone systems are akin to it. Both <a class="wiki_link" href="/50_49">50/49</a>, (the <a class="wiki_link" href="/jubilee%20comma">jubilee comma</a>), and <a class="wiki_link" href="/64_63">64/63</a>, (the <a class="wiki_link" href="/septimal%20comma">septimal comma</a>), are tempered out in both systems. Hence because of 50/49 they both equate the two septimal tritones of 7/5 and 10/7, and because of 64/63 they both do not distinguish between a dominant seventh chord and an otonal tetrad. Hence both also temper out (50/49)/(64/63) = 225/224, the <a class="wiki_link" href="/septimal%20kleisma">septimal kleisma</a>, so that the septimal kleisma augmented triad is a chord of 22-et, as it also is of any meantone tuning. A septimal comma not tempered out by 12-et which 22-et does temper out is 1728/1715, the <a class="wiki_link" href="/orwell%20comma">orwell comma</a>; and the <a class="wiki_link" href="/orwell%20tetrad">orwell tetrad</a> is also a chord of 22-et.<br />
<br />
As 22 is divisible by 11, a 22edo instrument can play any music in <a class="wiki_link" href="/11edo">11edo</a>, in the same way that 12edo can play 6edo (the whole tone scale). 11-equal is interesting for sounding melodically very similar to 12-equal (whole steps, half steps and minor thirds in the familiar 1:2:3 ratio), but harmonically very different, in particular because it lacks perfect fifths/fourths and 5-limit major thirds/minor sixths. Similarly, 22edo is melodically similar to 24edo as both contain quarter-tones and minor, neutral, and major seconds; but 22edo offers much better all-around harmonies than 24. In <a class="wiki_link" href="/Sagittal">Sagittal</a>, 11 can be notated as every other note of 22.<br />

 <br />
When 22edo is treated as generated by a cycle of its fifths, the naturals F C G D A E B represent a chain of those 13\22 fifths; consequently, the whole tone comes out to four degrees and the apotome (pythagorean sharp/flat) comes out to three degrees. Three pairs of sagittal symbols, dividing that apotome into three parts, are all that is necessary, and offer plenty of enharmonic equivalents:<br />
<!-- ws:start:WikiTextLocalImageRule:2023:&lt;img src=&quot;/file/view/22edo.png/269078624/22edo.png&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; /&gt; --><img src="/file/view/22edo.png/269078624/22edo.png" alt="22edo.png" title="22edo.png" /><!-- ws:end:WikiTextLocalImageRule:2023 --><br />
This notation is consistent with Sagittal's notation of 5-limit JI harmony: &quot;major&quot; 3rds and 6ths appear as (super)pythagorean intervals flattened by a syntonic comma.<br />
<br />
The division of the apotome into three syntonic commas also indicates 22's tempering out of the <a class="wiki_link" href="/250_243">porcupine comma</a> (which is equivalent to three syntonic commas minus a Pythagorean apotome).<br />
<br />
<!-- ws:start:WikiTextHeadingRule:26:&lt;h1&gt; --><h1 id="toc12"><a name="The Decatonic System"></a><!-- ws:end:WikiTextHeadingRule:26 -->The Decatonic System</h1>
 <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">The decatonic system is an approach of notation based on Paul Erlich's decatonic scales. Unlike typical notation, the decatonic system bases music into a 10 tone scale rather than 7. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">This approach requires an entire re-learning of chords, intervals, and notation but the advantage is that it allows 22 EDO to be notated using only one pair of accidentals, as well as</span><span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">gives the opportunity to escape a heptatonic thinking pattern.</span><br />

 </span><span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">The system is based on two chains of fifths. One represented by latin letters, the other greek. The two chains can be looked at as two juxtaposed pentatonic scales.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">Chain 1: C G D A E</span><span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">Chain 2: <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">γ δ α ε β </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">The alphabet is ascending order: C<span style="font-family: helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"> δ D ε E γ G α A β C </span></span><span style="background-color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;"><br />

For example G D is a fifth as well as </span><span style="color: #141823; font-family: helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">γ δ. </span></span><br />
