241 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 241edo or 241ed2), also called 241-tone equal temperament (241tet) or 241 equal temperament (241et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 241 equal parts of about 4.98 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/241, or the 241st root of 2.

Theory

241edo is distinctly consistent in the 15-odd-limit. It has a sharp tendency, with prime harmonics 3 through 13 all tuned sharp.

As an equal temperament, it tempers out 78732/78125 in the 5-limit, 19683/19600 and 3136/3125 in the 7-limit, 540/539, 43923/43904, 65536/65219, and 151263/151250 in the 11-limit, and 351/350, 676/675, 729/728, 1001/1000 and 2080/2079 in the 13-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for subpental.

Subsets and supersets

241edo is the 53rd prime edo. As such, it does not contain any nontrivial subset edos. 1205edo, which slices its step in five, is a notable higher-limit system.
