''' | The '''359 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''359edo''') is the [[EDO|equal division of the octave]] into 359 parts of 3.34262 [[cent]]s each. | ||

359edo contains a very close approximation of the pure [[3/2]] fifth of 701.955 cents, with the 210\359 step of 701.94986 cents. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for the 11-limit [[hera]] temperament. | |||
359edo supports a type of exaggerated Hornbostel mode, with an approximation of the blown fifth that he described of the pan flutes of some regions of South America; the Pythagorean fifth (701.955¢) minus the Pythagorean comma (23.46¢) = 678.495¢; in 359edo this is the step 203\359 of 678.55153¢. | |||
