109edo is the 29th [[prime EDO]].
== Theory ==
109edo [[tempering out|tempers out]] 20000/19683 ([[tetracot comma]]) in the [[5-limit]]; [[245/243]], [[2401/2400]] and [[65625/65536]] in the [[7-limit]]; [[385/384]], [[1375/1372]], and [[4000/3993]] in the [[11-limit]]. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for 7-limit [[octacot]] temperament, and 11- and 13-limit [[leapweek]]; plus 109ef provides an excellent tuning for 11- and 13-limit octacot.


Since 109edo has a step of 11.009 cents, it also allows one to use its MOS scales as circulating temperaments. It is also the first edo which also allows one to use an MOS scale one octave of which fills a standard piano keyboard as a circulating temperament.
109edo has an excellent [[7/1|7th harmonic]], being a denominator of [[semiconvergent]] to log<sub>2</sub>7, and it is overall a strong 2.5.7.11.19.23.31.41 [[subgroup]] tuning, with errors of less than 10% on all harmonics. Some commas it tempers out in this subgroup are 575/574, 1331/1330, 1375/1372, 2255/2254, 2300/2299, 6860/6859, 10241/10240.

109 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 109edo or 109ed2), also called 109-tone equal temperament (109tet) or 109 equal temperament (109et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 109 equal parts of about 11 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/109, or the 109th root of 2.

Theory

109edo tempers out 20000/19683 (tetracot comma) in the 5-limit; 245/243, 2401/2400 and 65625/65536 in the 7-limit; 385/384, 1375/1372, and 4000/3993 in the 11-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for 7-limit octacot temperament, and 11- and 13-limit leapweek; plus 109ef provides an excellent tuning for 11- and 13-limit octacot.

109edo has an excellent 7th harmonic, being a denominator of semiconvergent to log27, and it is overall a strong 2.5.7.11.19.23.31.41 subgroup tuning, with errors of less than 10% on all harmonics. Some commas it tempers out in this subgroup are 575/574, 1331/1330, 1375/1372, 2255/2254, 2300/2299, 6860/6859, 10241/10240.

Subsets and supersets

109edo is the 29th prime edo, following 107edo and before 113edo. 436edo, which slices each step of 109edo in four, provides correction for the approximation to harmonic 3.

Nonoctave temperaments

Taking every 8 degree of 109edo produces a scale extremely close to 88cET.
