The '''2190 equal division''' divides the octave into 2190 equal parts of 0.5479 cents each. It is is a very strong 13-limit system; no smaller division has a smaller 13-limit [[Tenney-Euclidean_temperament_measures#TE simple badness|relative error]], and nothing beats it until [[2684edo|2684]]. A basis for the 13-limit commas is {9801/9800, 10648/10647, 105644/105625, 140625/140608, 196625/196608}; also tempered out are 123201/123200 and 151263/151250.

2190 factors as 2 * 3 * 5 * 73; among its divisors is the Woolhouse unit system, [[730edo|730]].
2190edo is a very strong [[13-limit]] system; no smaller division has a smaller 13-limit [[Tenney-Euclidean temperament measures #TE simple badness|relative error]], and nothing beats it until [[2684edo|2684]]. It is closely related to [[730edo]], the Woolhouse unit system, with which it shares the same tuning in the [[5-limit]], but the [[harmonic]]s [[7/1|7]], [[11/1|11]], and [[13/1|13]] are all mapped differently. A basis for the 13-limit [[comma]]s is {[[9801/9800]], [[10648/10647]], 105644/105625, [[140625/140608]], 196625/196608}; also [[tempering out|tempered out]] are [[123201/123200]], [[151263/151250]], and [[250047/250000]].

It is not as impressive beyond the 13-limit, though it does well in the 2.3.5.7.11.13.19 [[subgroup]], where it holds the record of lowest relative error until [[6079edo|6079]], and the 2.3.5.7.11.13.19.29 subgroup, where it holds the record of lowest relative error until [[14618edo|14618]].

=== Subsets and supersets ===
Since 2190 factors into primes as {{nowrap| 2 × 3 × 5 × 73 }}, 2190edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 30, 73, 146, 219, 365, 438, 730, and 1095 }}. A step of 2190edo is exactly {{frac|1|3}} Woolhouse unit.
 
[[4380edo]], which doubles 2190edo, provides a good correction to the harmonics [[17/1|17]] and [[23/1|23]].
