%N 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.
%C The sequence was found by a computer search of all of the equal divisions of the octave from 1 to over 35163.
%C 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.
%F 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.
%e 109 = 87 + the previous term 22. Again, 184417 = 121524 + the previous terms (54624 and 6691 and 1578).
%Y Cf. A054540, A060525, A060526.
