50 equal divisions of the tritave, perfect twelfth, or 3rd harmonic (abbreviated 50edt or 50ed3), is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 3/1 into 50 equal parts of about 38 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 31/50, or the 50th root of 3. This tuning can use 25-tone notation with quartertones. There would be 9 letter names, A to I. The perfect 5th would be notated as D (from an A root), a P4 interval. The septimal minor 3rd would be A-Bt, or a sM2.
