The '''3600odo''' divides the octave into 3600 equal parts of 0.33333 (exactly 1/3) of a [[cent]] each. A cent is therefore three steps; also, the Dröbisch Angle which is 1/360 octave is ten steps. It also has the advantage of expressing the steps of [[72edo]] in whole numbers. Aside from its relationship to cents, it is of interest as a system supporting [[ennealimmal temperament]], tempering out the ennealimma, {{~~Monzo| 1 -27 18~~ }}, in the [[5-limit]] and (with the [[patent val]]) 2401/2400 and 4375/4374 in the [[7-limit]]. An alternative 7-limit mapping is 3600d, with the 7 slightly sharp rather than slightly flat; this no longer supports ennealimmal, but it does temper out 52734375/52706752; together with the ennealimma that leads to a sort of strange sibling to ennealimmal temperament, more accurate but also more complex. Via the [[val]] {{~~val| 3600 5706 8359 10106 12453 13318~~ }}~~, 3600edo also supports [[hemiennealimmal temperament]].~~

An alternative 7-limit mapping is 3600d, with the 7 slightly sharp rather than slightly flat; this no longer supports ennealimmal, but it does temper out 52734375/52706752; together with the ennealimma that leads to a sort of strange sibling to ennealimmal temperament, more accurate but also more complex.

3600edo factors as {{Factorization|3600}}, and has subset edos {{EDOs|1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 16, 18, 20, 24, 25, 30, 36, 40, 45, 48, 50, 60, 72, 75, 80, 90, 100, 120, 144, 150, 180, 200, 225, 240, 300, 360, 400, 450, 600, 720, 900, 1200, 1800}}.

A cent is therefore represented by three steps; and the Dröbisch angle, which is [[360edo|logarithmically 1/360 of the octave]], is ten steps. EDOs corresponding to other notable divisors include [[72edo]], which has found a dissemination in practice and one step of which is represented by 50 steps, and [[200edo]], which holds the continued fraction expansion record for the best perfect fifth and its step is represented by 18 steps.
