The '''205 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''205edo'''), or the '''205(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''205tet''', '''205et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, divides the [[octave]] into 205 parts of 5.854 [[cent]]s each. | The '''205 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''205edo'''), or the '''205(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''205tet''', '''205et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, divides the [[octave]] into 205 parts of 5.854 [[cent]]s each. | ||

205 factors into primes as 5 × 41, a fact some advocates of the division make use of; it is also 2460/12, so that a single step is precisely 12 [[mina]]s. | 205 factors into primes as 5 × 41, a fact some advocates of the division make use of; it is also 2460/12, so that a single step is precisely 12 [[mina]]s. | ||

The 119\205 meantone fifth is extremely close to the 1/4-comma fifth, being only 0.007 cents sharp of it. Moreover the steps are half a cent flat of 1/4 of a syntonic comma. This makes the Tonal Plexus keyboard potentially of use in implementing [[Wikipedia: Nicola Vicentino|Nicola Vicentino]]'s [http://www.tonalsoft.com/monzo/vicentino/vicentino.aspx adaptive-JI scheme of 1555]. It also means that authentic 1/4-comma meantone tuning is, for practical purposes, available in 205 and allows for historically authentic performances of 1/4-comma music on the historically newfangled Tonal Plexus. | The 119\205 meantone fifth is extremely close to the 1/4-comma fifth, being only 0.007 cents sharp of it.
