The '''342 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''342edo'''), or the '''342(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''342tet''', '''342et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, is the [[EDO|equal division of the octave]] into 342 parts of about 3.51 [[cent]]s each.

342edo is a very strong 11-limit system. It is, as one would expect, distinctly [[consistent]] through the 11-odd-limit, but goes no higher; nonetheless, it is a  [[The Riemann zeta function and tuning #Zeta EDO lists|zeta peak edo]]. A basis for the 11-limit commas is 2401/2400, 3025/3024, 4375/4374 and 32805/32768. It is the optimal patent val for 11-limit [[Breedsmic temperaments #Hemitert|hemitert]] temperament, and [[support]]s hemiennealimmal.

[[684edo]], which doubles 342edo, provides an approximation of harmonic 13 that works well with the flat tendency of its 11-limit mapping.
