The '''494 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''494edo'''), or the '''494(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''494tet''', '''494et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, divides the [[octave]] into 494 [[equal]] parts of about 2.43 [[cent]]s each.

494 is a very strong [[13-limit|13]]- and [[17-limit]] equal temperament. 494edo is a [[The Riemann zeta function and tuning #Zeta EDO lists|zeta peak and zeta peak integer edo]] and uniquely [[consistent]] through the [[17-odd-limit]]. It [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[enneadeca]], {{monzo| -14 -19 19 }}, the [[tricot comma]], {{monzo| 39 -29 3 }}, and the [[kwazy comma]], {{monzo| -53 10 16 }} in the [[5-limit]]. In the [[7-limit]], it tempers out [[4375/4374]] and [[703125/702464]]; in the [[11-limit]] [[3025/3024]] and [[9801/9800]]; in the [[13-limit]] [[1716/1715]], [[2080/2079]], [[4096/4095]], [[4225/4224]] and [[6656/6655]]; and in the 17-limit, [[1156/1155]], 1275/1274, 2431/2430, and 2500/2499.

Since the step size is close to [[729/728]], the squbema, the accepted name for 494edo's step is ''squb''.

Since 494 = 2 × 13 × 19, 494edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 13, 19, 26, 38, and 247 }}.
Since 494 factors into {{factorization|494}}, 494edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 13, 19, 26, 38, and 247 }}.


[[988edo]], which slices the edostep in two, provides a good correction of the 19th harmonic. [[2964edo]], which slices the edostep in six, provides an extremely precise correction of the 7th harmonic.

* 494et has a lower [[Tenney-Euclidean temperament measures #TE simple badness|relative error]] than any previous equal temperaments in the 13- and 17-limit. It is the first past [[270edo|270]] with a lower 13-limit relative error, and the first past [[72edo|72]] with a lower 17-limit relative error. It is narrowly beaten by [[684edo|684]] in terms of 13-limit absolute error and by [[581edo|581]] in terms of 17-limit absolute error. Not until [[1506edo|1506]] do we reach an equal temperament with a lower relative error in either subgroup.
