Ed8/3
The equal division of 8/3 (ed8/3) is a tuning obtained by dividing the Pythagorean perfect eleventh (8/3) in a certain number of equal steps.
Equivalence
Division of 8/3 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an equivalence. The question of equivalence has not even been posed yet. Many, though not all, of these scales have a false octave, with various degrees of accuracy. The eleventh is also the highest equivalence where composers do not need to go beyond the false octave just to have a reasonably complete chordal harmony. However, the utility of 8/3 or another eleventh as a base is complicated by the fact that 8/3 is the avoid note in a major modality although this matters less in Mixolydian than it does in Ionian given that the former is the natural dominant scale anyway.
Incidentally, one way to treat 8/3 as an equivalence is the use of the 3:4:5:6:(8) chord as the fundamental complete sonority in a very similar way to the 4:5:6:(8) chord in meantone.
Regular temperament approaches
Whereas in meantone it takes four 3/2 to get to 5/1, here it takes twelve octaves to get to 134217718/98415 (tempering out the schisma). So, doing this yields 7-, 10- and 17- or 13-, 16- or 19-note mos scales. While the notes are rather farther apart, the scheme is uncannily similar to the mohajira (within 8/3) temperaments.
The terms for it are the "Macromohajira" Bolivarian mode (get your mind out of the other gutter, they do not have to do with that country that is there right now, at least not particularly directly). Rather, they refer to a place that is slightly cleaner:
Galveston Bay Temperament Area
- 2L 8s and 8L 2s, 5L 5s - Galveston Symmetric, Pentachordal Major, Macro-Blackwood
- 4L 6s and 6L 4s - Baytown
- 3L 7s and 7L 3s - Bolivar
The similar decatonic scales in edIXs and edXs belong to the Chesapeake Bay Temperament Area:
- Double Neapolitan[10i]: Scala Mariae/Notre Dame
- Neapolitan/Middletown Valley Dorian[10i]: Annapolis
- Middletown Valley Mixolydian[10i]: Oriole
- Other similar decatonic ± 1 scales have the following names:
- Locrian and Pluperfect/Abundant Phrygian[10i]/Lydian and Perfect Ionian[11i]: Scala Francisci
- Perfect Ionian through Pluperfect/Abundant Phrygian[9i]: Montréal
