The equal division of 12/1 (ed12/1) is a tuning obtained by dividing the twelfth harmonic (12/1) in a certain number of equal steps.
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 is that it serves as two times the upper bound of the range of most peoples' voices, which the author takes to be about √12. The twelfth harmonic is pretty far as much as equivalences go.
MOSes
25-note MOSes
This is equivalent to 7-note MOSes in the 2/1.
- 18L 7s and 7L 18s: Greater Diatonic and Greater Mavila
- 14L 11s and 11L 14s: Greater Smitonic and Greater Mosh
36-note MOSes
This is equivalent to 10-note MOSes in the 2/1.
- 29L 7s and 7L 29s: Hexacontapental and Antihexacontapental
- 27L 9s and 9L 27s: Unquic and Antiunquic
