253 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 253edo or 253ed2), also called 253-tone equal temperament (253tet) or 253 equal temperament (253et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 253 equal parts of about 4.74 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/253, or the 253rd root of 2.

Theory

253edo is consistent to the 17-odd-limit, approximating the fifth by 148\253 (0.021284 cents sharper than the just 3/2), and the prime harmonics from 5 to 17 are all slightly flat. As an equal temperament, it tempers out 32805/32768 in the 5-limit; 2401/2400 in the 7-limit; 385/384, 1375/1372 and 4000/3993 in the 11-limit; 325/324, 1575/1573 and 2200/2197 in the 13-limit; 375/374 and 595/594 in the 17-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for the tertiaschis temperament, and a good tuning for the sesquiquartififths temperament in the higher limits.
