The '''1200 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''1200edo'''), or the '''1200(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''1200tet''', '''1200et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, divides the [[octave]] into 1200 [[equal]] parts of exactly 1 [[cent]] each, and a size close to [[1729/1728]]. It is notable mostly because it is the equal division corresponding to cents.

1200edo is notable for being the equal division of the octave corresponding to '''[[cent]]s'''.

1200edo is [[consistency|distinctly consistent]] through the [[11-odd-limit]]. This means that whole-cent approximations of the 11-odd-limit [[tonality diamond]] intervals are conveniently represented through the 11-limit [[patent val]] {{val| 1200 1902 2786 3369 4151 }}. It is [[enfactoring|enfactored]] in the [[5-limit]], having the same tuning as [[600edo]].
