The '''229 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''229edo'''), or the '''229(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''229tet''', '''229et'''), is the [[EDO|equal division of the octave]] into 229 parts of about 5.24 [[cent]]s each.

The 229b val supports a [[septimal meantone]] close to the [[CTE tuning]].  
It extends less well to the 13-limit. Using the [[patent val]] {{val| 229 363 532 643 792 '''847''' }}, it tempers out [[351/350]], [[1573/1568]], [[2080/2079]], and [[4096/4095]]. Using the alternative 229f val {{val| 229 363 532 643 792 '''848''' }}, it tempers out [[352/351]], [[729/728]], [[1001/1000]], and [[1716/1715]].  


229edo is the 50th [[prime EDO]].
Higher [[harmonic]]s like [[17/1|17]], [[19/1|19]], and [[23/1|23]] are well-approximated, so it shows great potential in the no-13 23-limit. It tempers out [[561/560]], [[1089/1088]], and [[1701/1700]] in the 17-limit; [[476/475]], [[1216/1215]], [[1445/1444]], and [[1540/1539]] in the 19-limit; and [[484/483]], [[576/575]] and [[736/735]] in the 23-limit.

229 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 229edo or 229ed2), also called 229-tone equal temperament (229tet) or 229 equal temperament (229et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 229 equal parts of about 5.24 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/229, or the 229th root of 2.

Theory

While not highly accurate for its size, 229edo is the point where a few important temperaments meet, and is distinctly consistent in the 11-odd-limit. It tempers out 393216/390625 (würschmidt comma) and [39 -29 3⟩ (alphatricot comma) in the 5-limit; 2401/2400, 3136/3125, 6144/6125, and 14348907/14336000 in the 7-limit; 3025/3024, 3388/3375, 8019/8000, 14641/14580 and 15488/15435 in the 11-limit, notably supporting hemiwürschmidt, newt, and alphatrident.

It extends less well to the 13-limit. Using the patent val ⟨229 363 532 643 792 847], it tempers out 351/350, 1573/1568, 2080/2079, and 4096/4095. Using the alternative 229f val ⟨229 363 532 643 792 848], it tempers out 352/351, 729/728, 1001/1000, and 1716/1715.

Higher harmonics like 17, 19, and 23 are well-approximated, so it shows great potential in the no-13 23-limit. It tempers out 561/560, 1089/1088, and 1701/1700 in the 17-limit; 476/475, 1216/1215, 1445/1444, and 1540/1539 in the 19-limit; and 484/483, 576/575 and 736/735 in the 23-limit.

The 229b val supports a septimal meantone close to the CTE tuning.
