'''257edo''' is the [[EDO|equal division of the octave]] into 257 parts of 4.66926 [[cent]]s each. It is inconsistent to the 5-limit and higher limit, with four mappings possible for the 7-limit: <257 407 597 721| (patent val), <257 408 597 722| (257bd), <257 407 596 721| (257c), and <257 407 597 722| (257d). Using the patent val, it tempers out 393216/390625 ([[Würschmidt comma]]) and |-36 33 -7> in the 5-limit; 1029/1024, 177147/175000, and 393216/390625 in the 7-limit.

257 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 257edo or 257ed2), also called 257-tone equal temperament (257tet) or 257 equal temperament (257et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 257 equal parts of about 4.67 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/257, or the 257th root of 2.

257edo is inconsistent to the 5-odd-limit, with significant errors on harmonics 3, 5, 7, and 9.

In the 7-limit, there are a number of mappings to be considered. First is the 257 407 597 721] (patent val), where the equal temperament tempers out 393216/390625 (würschmidt comma) in the 5-limit and 1029/1024 and 177147/175000 in the 7-limit. Using the 257d val, 257 407 597 722] it tempers out 1728/1715, 413343/409600, and 703125/702464 in the 7-limit. Using the 257bd val, 257 408 597 722], it tempers out 15625/15552 (kleisma) in the 5-limit; 4000/3969, 6144/6125, and 40353607/39858075 in the 7-limit.

Using the 257c val, 257 407 596 721] it tempers out 34171875/33554432 (ampersand comma) and [-3 -23 17 (maja comma) in the 5-limit; 225/224, 1029/1024, and [2 -25 15 1 in the 7-limit; 243/242, 385/384, 441/440, and [0 -2 16 -1 -9 in the 11-limit, supporting the 11-limit miracle temperament.

In higher limits, 257edo is a strong 2.11.13.15.27 subgroup tuning, and it is overall good at the 2.27.15.11.13.37.41.49.53.59.67 subgroup. A comma basis for the 2.27.15.11.13 subgroup is {4225/4224, 256000/255879, 225000/224939, 4159375/4153344}.
