Since 301 factors into ~~7 × 43~~, 301edo has [[7edo]] and [[43edo]] as its subsets. This is related to the proposal of the deaf French mathematician and acoustician {{w|Joseph Sauveur}} to divide the octave in 43 parts called ''merides'', and those into seven more parts called ''heptamerides''. Back in the days of slide rules and log tables, this made sense since by multiplying the log base ten of the interval in question by 1000, one came close to how many heptamerides it constituted.

Since 301 factors into {{factorisation|301}}, 301edo has [[7edo]] and [[43edo]] as its subsets. This is related to the proposal of the deaf French mathematician and acoustician {{w|Joseph Sauveur}} to divide the octave in 43 parts called ''merides'', and those into seven more parts called ''heptamerides''. Back in the days of slide rules and log tables, this made sense since by multiplying the log base ten of the interval in question by 1000, one came close to how many heptamerides it constituted.

301edo also tempers out {{monzo| 168 -43 -43 }} and 5250987/5242880, so it supports the [[Mitonismic temperaments #Meridic|meridic temperament]].
