Theory

97ed9 is an equal-step tuning system created by dividing the interval of 9/1 into 97 equal parts.

This system can be approximated as 30.6001 EDO, meaning each step of 97ed9 corresponds closely to five steps of 153edo.

This non-octave, non-tritave scale features a well-balanced harmonic series segment from 4 to 9 and another from 39 to 50. It performs well across all prime harmonics from 5 to 19, with the exception of 13, which is slightly flat.

97ed9 sets a height record on the Riemann zeta function with primes 2 and 3 removed, approximating 30.59745 EDO. This record remains unbeaten until approximately 41.3478 EDO.

Additionally, 97ed9 is close to 125zpi.
