559 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 559edo or 559ed2), also called 559-tone equal temperament (559tet) or 559 equal temperament (559et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 559 equal parts of about 2.15 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/559, or the 559th root of 2.

Theory

559edo is a very strong 5-limit system. It tempers out the luna comma, [38 -2 -15 and the minortone comma, [-16 35 -17 in the 5-limit, as well as the monzisma, [54 -37 2; 4375/4374, 2100875/2097152, and 282475249/281250000 in the 7-limit; 12005/11979, 41503/41472, 160083/160000, and 172032/171875 in the 11-limit. Rank-2 temperaments it supports include mitonic, lunatic, acrokleismic, monzism, and meridic.
