441edo is a very strong [[7-limit]] system; strong enough to qualify as a [[zeta peak edo]]. It is also very strong simply considered as a [[5-limit]] system; it is the first division past [[118edo|118]] with a lower [[5-limit]] [[Tenney-Euclidean temperament measures #TE simple badness|relative error]]. In the 5-limit it [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[hemithirds comma]], {{monzo| 38 -2 -15 }}, the [[ennealimma]], {{monzo| 1 -27 18 }}, whoosh, {{monzo| 37 25 -33 }}, and egads, {{monzo| -36 -52 51 }}. In the 7-limit it tempers out [[2401/2400]], [[4375/4374]], [[420175/419904]] and [[250047/250000]], so that it [[support]]s [[ennealimmal]]. In the [[11-limit]] it tempers out [[4000/3993]], and in the [[13-limit]], [[1575/1573]], [[2080/2079]] and [[4096/4095]]. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for 11- and [[13-limit]] [[Ragismic microtemperaments #Ennealimmal|semiennealimmal]], the {{nowrap| 72 & 369f }} temperament, and for the 7-limit {{nowrap| 41 & 400 }} temperament. Since it tempers out 1575/1573, the nicola, it allows the [[nicolic chords]] in the [[15-odd-limit]].
441edo is an extremely strong [[7-limit]] system; strong enough to qualify as a [[zeta peak edo]]. It is also extraordinarily strong simply considered as a [[5-limit]] system; it is the first division past [[118edo|118]] with a lower [[5-limit]] [[Tenney-Euclidean temperament measures #TE simple badness|relative error]]. In the 5-limit it [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[hemithirds comma]], {{monzo| 38 -2 -15 }}, the [[ennealimma]], {{monzo| 1 -27 18 }}, whoosh, {{monzo| 37 25 -33 }}, and egads, {{monzo| -36 -52 51 }}. In the 7-limit it tempers out [[2401/2400]], [[4375/4374]], [[420175/419904]] and [[250047/250000]], so that it [[support]]s [[ennealimmal]]. In the [[11-limit]] it tempers out [[4000/3993]], and in the [[13-limit]], [[1575/1573]], [[2080/2079]] and [[4096/4095]]. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for 11- and [[13-limit]] [[Ragismic microtemperaments #Ennealimmal|semiennealimmal]], the {{nowrap| 72 & 369f }} temperament, and for the 7-limit {{nowrap| 41 & 400 }} temperament. Since it tempers out 1575/1573, the nicola, it allows the [[nicolic chords]] in the [[15-odd-limit]]. It shines in the 2.3.5.7.13 subgroup, with a maximum error of 0.408 cents per interval (in [[14/13]] and [[13/7]]), and in the 2.3.5.7.13.23 subgroup, with a maximum error of 0.416 cents per interval (in [[28/23]] and [[23/14]]).


The steps of 441 are only 1/30 of a cent sharp of 1/8 syntonic comma. Lowering the fifth, which is only 1/12 of a cent sharp, by two steps gives a generator, 256\441, close to 1/4 comma meantone. Like [[205edo]] but even more accurately, 441 can be used as a basis for a Vicentino style "adaptive JI" system.

Similar to [[205edo]] but with greater accuracy, 441 can be used as a basis for a Vicentino style "adaptive JI" system.  


One step of 441edo is also of a size close to [[625/624]], the tunbarsma.

441 factors into primes as {{nowrap| 3<sup>2</sup> × 7<sup>2</sup> }}, and 441edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 3, 7, 9, 21, 49, 63 and 147 }}.

[[882edo]], which doubles it, gives an alternative mapping for harmonics 11 and 17. [[1323edo]], which divides the edostep into three, is the smallest distinctly consistent edo in the 29-odd-limit and thus provides good correction for prime harmonics from 11 to 29.
