156 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 156edo or 156ed2), also called 156-tone equal temperament (156tet) or 156 equal temperament (156et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 156 equal parts of about 7.692 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/156, or the 156th root of 2.

It supports compton temperament. It is the smallest EDO to contain both 12edo and 13edo as subsets.

It tempers out 531441/524288 (pythagorean comma) and 1220703125/1207959552 (ditonmic comma) in the 5-limit, as well as 1224440064/1220703125 (parakleisma); 225/224, 250047/250000, and 589824/588245 in the 7-limit. Using the patent val, it tempers out 441/440, 1375/1372, 4375/4356, and 65536/65219 in the 11-limit; 351/350, 364/363, 625/624, 1625/1617, and 13122/13013 in the 13-limit. Using the 156e val, it tempers out 385/384, 540/539, 1331/1323, and 78408/78125 in the 11-limit; 351/350, 625/624, 847/845, and 1001/1000 in the 13-limit.
