55edo | 55edo supports [[meantone]], and is close to [[1/6-comma meantone]]. {{w|Georg Philipp Telemann|Telemann}} suggested it as a theoretical basis for analyzing the [[meantone intervals|intervals of meantone]]. {{w|Leopold Mozart|Leopold}} and {{w|Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart|Wolfgang Mozart}} recommended 55edo or something close to it, with a subset and further approximation used for keyboard instruments which (apart from an experimental instrument) did not have enough notes per octave to accommodate it in full.<ref>Chesnut, John (1977) ''Mozart's Teaching of Intonation'', '''Journal of the American Musicological Society''' Vol. 30, No. 2 (Summer, 1977), pp. 254-271 (Published By: University of California Press) [https://doi.org/10.2307/831219 doi.org/10.2307/831219], [http://www.jstor.org/stable/831219 https://www.jstor.org/stable/831219]</ref> It can also be used for [[mohajira]] and [[liese]] temperaments. It also supports an extremely sharp tuning of [[huygens|huygens/undecimal meantone]] using the 55de [[val]], meaning that primes 7 and 11 are mapped very sharply to their second-best mapping. 55edo is a [[zeta valley edo]], suggesting it does not approximate the harmonic series very well for its size. | ||

55 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 55edo or 55ed2), also called 55-tone equal temperament (55tet) or 55 equal temperament (55et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 55 equal parts of about 21.8 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/55, or the 55th root of 2.
Theory
55edo supports meantone, and is close to 1/6-comma meantone. Telemann suggested it as a theoretical basis for analyzing the intervals of meantone. Leopold and Wolfgang Mozart recommended 55edo or something close to it, with a subset and further approximation used for keyboard instruments which (apart from an experimental instrument) did not have enough notes per octave to accommodate it in full.[1] It can also be used for mohajira and liese temperaments. It also supports an extremely sharp tuning of huygens/undecimal meantone using the 55de val, meaning that primes 7 and 11 are mapped very sharply to their second-best mapping. 55edo is a zeta valley edo, suggesting it does not approximate the harmonic series very well for its size.

Subsets and supersets
Since 55 factors into primes as 5 × 11, 55edo contains 5edo and 11edo as its subsets.

Notation
Stein–Zimmermann–Gould notation
Stein–Zimmermann–Gould notation uses sharps and flats combined with quartertone accidentals and arrows:
| Step offset | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sharp symbol | | | | | | | | | | |
| Flat symbol | | | | | | | | | |
Kite's ups and downs notation
55edo can also be notated with Kite's ups and downs, spoken as up, dup, downsharp, sharp, upsharp etc. and down, dud, upflat etc. Note that dup is equivalent to dudsharp and dud is equivalent to dupflat.

31-tone subset
The 31-out-of-55edo subset can be notated entirely with the standard notation of 7 each of naturals/sharps/flats, and 5 each of doublesharps/doubleflats, as a 31-tone chain-of-5ths from Gbb to Ax.
