260 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 260edo or 260ed2), also called 260-tone equal temperament (260tet) or 260 equal temperament (260et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 260 equal parts of about 4.62 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/260, or the 260th root of 2.

Theory

260edo is enfactored in the 7-limit, with the same tuning as 65edo in the 5-limit, and the same as 130edo in the 7-limit. The mappings for harmonics 11 and 17 differ, but 260edo's are hardly an improvement over 130edo's. 29 is the first harmonic that is offered as a sizeable improvement over 130edo. In the 2.3.5.7.29 subgroup, 260edo tempers out 841/840, 16820/16807, and 47096/46875.
