68 equal divisions of the 12th harmonic (abbreviated 68ed12) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 12/1 into 68 equal parts of about 63.3 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 121/68, or the 68th root of 12.
Theory
68ed12 is very nearly identical to 19edo, but with the 12/1 rather than the 2/1 being just. This results in octaves being stretched by about 2.02 cents. Like 19edo, 68ed12 is consistent to the 10-integer-limit.
