552 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 552edo or 552ed2), also called 552-tone equal temperament (552tet) or 552 equal temperament (552et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 552 equal parts of about 2.17 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/552, or the 552nd root of 2.

Theory

552edo is distinctly consistent in the 15-odd-limit. It has a sharp tendency, with prime harmonics 3 through 13 all tuned sharp. The equal temperament tempers out [8 14 -3 (parakleisma) in the 5-limit; 250047/250000 (landscape comma), 589824/588245 (hewuermera comma), 26873856/26796875, and 33554432/33480783 (garischisma) in the 7-limit; 5632/5625, 9801/9800, 46656/46585, 151263/151250, and 161280/161051 in the 11-limit; and 1716/1715, 2080/2079, 10648/10647, and 20480/20449 in the 13-limit. It supports sextile and gives a good tuning for it.

It is also consistent in the no-17 23-odd-limit and the no-17 no-25 33-odd-limit. In the 2.3.5.7.11.13.19 subgroup, it tempers out 1216/1215, 2376/2375, 2926/2925, 3136/3135, 3328/3325, 3971/3969 among other commas.
