The equal division of the 5th harmonic (ed5) is a tuning obtained by dividing the 5th harmonic in a certain number of equal steps.

Theory

The 5th harmonic is particularly wide as far as equivalences go. There are (at absolute most) ~4.8 pentaves within the human hearing range; imagine if that were the case with octaves. If one does indeed deal with pentave equivalence, this range restriction is a crucial consideration. Pentave equivalence itself may have a basis in Western music seeing as minor chords have an octave of 5 in their root (i.e. 10:12:15).

One way to treat 5/1 as an equivalence is by eliminating the primes 2 and 3. The most fundamental chord in this paradigm is 5:7:11. This chord can be approximated in a 5.7.11 (or "no-twos-or-threes 11-limit") subgroup regular temperament by eliminating the comma 859375/823543, equating a stack of 7 7/5 generators with 11/5. Other equivalences that could be used for such "no-two-or-threes" music include equal divisions of 11/5 and equal divisions of 11/7.

The quintessential example of a pentave based tuning is hyperpyth (see 17ed5). However, perhaps the more common reason to use these scales is in approximation with lower harmonic factors than 5. This approach is highlighted by Hieronymus (20ed5) which itself is a zeta peak tuning (not "no-fives", full on zeta). Other reasons for taking the n-th root of 5 include finding temperaments like orwell, meantone, and thuja. This approach can of course be used indiscriminately.

Some equal divisions of the pentave are known by alternate names or have special interest:
