The 128 equal division divides the [[octave]] into 128 equal parts of exactly 9.375 [[cent]]s each. It is the [[optimal patent val]] for [[7-limit]] [[Gamelismic clan|rodan temperament]]. It [[tempers out]] 2109375/2097152 in the [[5-limit]]; 245/243, 1029/1024 and 5120/5103 in the 7-limit; 385/384 and 441/440 in the limit. Being the power of two closest to division of the octave by the Germanic [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_hundred long hundred], it has a unit step which is the binary (fine) relative cent (or relative heptamu in MIDI terms) of [[1edo]].
