EDO
n. C / Un. Stands for Equal Division of the Octave. A way of dividing an octave into equal parts to create musical scales. You use this when talking about tuning systems that are different from standard Western music.
n. Abbreviation for Equal Division of the Octave. A tuning system where the octave is partitioned into a specific number of equal logarithmic steps.
The composer used 19-EDO to create a unique sound.
While standard Western music uses 12-EDO, many microtonal musicians explore 31-EDO for its different harmonic possibilities.
The software allows users to define custom EDO scales, enabling the exploration of intervals that do not exist within the traditional twelve-tone equal temperament system.
Often preceded by a number (e.g., '22-EDO') to specify the number of divisions per octave.
