A060527 A list of equal temperaments (equal divisions of the octave) whose nearest scale steps are closer and closer approximations to the ratios of 8 musical tones: 8/7 16/11 5/4 4/3 3/2 8/5 11/8 7/4. 10
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 15, 22, 26, 31, 41, 63, 72, 87, 109, 161, 202, 224, 270, 494, 612, 742, 764, 836, 1012, 1084, 1106, 1308, 1417, 1578, 3426, 4843, 6421, 6691, 10698, 12276, 18355, 19461, 21039, 22887, 25046, 26894, 31737, 33585, 35163 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; text; internal format)

COMMENTS

The sequence was found by a computer search of all of the equal divisions of the octave from 1 to over 35163.

The numerical value of each term represents a musical scale based on an equal division of the octave. 12, for example, signifies the scale which is formed by dividing the octave into 12 equal parts.

LINKS

FORMULA

Recurrence: the next term equals the current term plus one or more of the previous terms. a(n+1) = a(n) + a(n-x)... + a(n-y)... + a(n-z)..., etc.

EXAMPLE

109 = 87 + the previous term 22. Again, 184417 = 121524 + the previous terms (54624 and 6691 and 1578).
