'''49-EDO''', or '''49 equal temperament''' divides the octave into 49 equal parts of 24.490 [[cent]]s each.  
The '''49 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''49edo'''), or the '''49(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''49tet''', '''49et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, divides the [[octave]] into 49 [[equal]] parts of about 24.5 [[cent]]s each.

49edo is very much on the sharp side of things, with sharp tunings of harmonics 3 (it is the first square equal division with a "real" 3 of step coprime to its cardinality), 5, 7, and 11. It is the [[optimal patent val]] for [[superpyth]] temperament in the 7 and 11 limits, [[Archytas family #Archytas|archytas]] ([[7-limit]]) and [[Archytas family #Ares|ares]] ([[11-limit]]) planar temperaments and almost identical to the e-based analog of [[Lucy tuning]]. It [[tempering out|tempers out]] [[64/63]], [[245/243]] and [[3125/3087]] in the 7-limit, and [[100/99]] and [[1375/1372]] in the 11-limit.
