1861 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 1861edo or 1861ed2), also called 1861-tone equal temperament (1861tet) or 1861 equal temperament (1861et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 1861 equal parts of about 0.645 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/1861, or the 1861st root of 2.

Theory

1861edo is only consistent to the 5-odd-limit, and the harmonic 3 is about halfway between its steps. It has a reasonable approximation of the 2.9.5.21.11 subgroup.
