338 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 338edo or 338ed2), also called 338-tone equal temperament (338tet) or 338 equal temperament (338et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 338 equal parts of about 3.55 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/338, or the 338th root of 2.

The equal temperament tempers out [23 6 -14 (vishnu comma) in the 5-limit, and 2401/2400, 5120/5103 and 10976/10935 in the 7-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for 7-limit hemififths, the 99 & 239 temperament.
