17 equal temperament
In music, 17 equal temperament is the tempered scale derived by dividing the octave into 17 equal steps (equal frequency ratios). Each step represents a frequency ratio of 17√2, or 70.6 cents.
17-ET is the tuning of the regular diatonic tuning in which the tempered perfect fifth is equal to 705.88 cents, as shown in Figure 1 (look for the label "17-TET").
Alexander J. Ellis refers to a tuning of seventeen tones based on perfect fourths and fifths as the Arabic scale. In the thirteenth century, Middle-Eastern musician Safi al-Din Urmawi developed a theoretical system of seventeen tones to describe Arabic and Persian music, although the tones were not equally spaced. This 17-tone system remained the primary theoretical system until the development of the quarter tone scale.[citation needed]
Easley Blackwood Jr. created a notation system where sharps and flats raised/lowered 2 steps, identical to ups and downs notation for 17-EDO. ((10*7) mod 17 = 2.) This yields the chromatic scale:
Quarter tone sharps and flats can also be used, yielding the following chromatic scale:
Below are some intervals in 17 EDO compared to just.
17 EDO is a subset of 34 EDO, equivalent to every other step in the 34 EDO scale.
