The equal division of 15/4 (ed15/4) is a tuning obtained by dividing the classic major fourteenth (15/4) into a number of equal steps.
Properties
Division of 15/4 into equal parts does not necessarily imply directly using this interval as an equivalence. Many, though not all, ed15/4 scales have a perceptually important false octave, with various degrees of accuracy.
Ed15/4s are in the region where they may experience structural beating with the interval 4/1.
