Ed100

This page presents a novelty topic. It features ideas which are less likely to find practical applications in xenharmonic music. It may contain numbers that are impractically large, exceedingly complex, or chosen arbitrarily. Novelty topics are often developed by a single person or a small group. As such, this page may also feature idiosyncratic terms, notations, or conceptual frameworks.

Ed100 means Division of the Hundredth Harmonic (100/1) into n equal parts. Ed100 tunings have little practical application but they have been stumbled upon by theorists a couple of times due to their correspondence with base-10 magnitude scales used ‘in the wild’.
