The equal division of √12 (ed√12) is a tuning obtained by dividing the hemipyth[10] perfect 18-step (√12) in a certain number of equal steps. ned√12 is also equivalent to 2ned12.

Properties

Division of √12 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an equivalence. The question of equivalence has not even been posed yet. The utility of this interval as an equivalence, despite being irrational, is that it serves as an upper bound of the range of most peoples' voices. While hemipyth chords can be used, due to the wider equave wider, sparser chord spacings can be utilized.

Octodecatonic MOSses are particularly natural with this equave, with 7L 11s particularly being reminiscent of hemipyth.
