The '''1600''' equal division divides the octave into 1600 equal parts of exactly 0.75 cents each. It is a very strong 37-limit system, being distinctly consistent in the 37-limit with a smaller [[Tenney-Euclidean_temperament_measures#TE simple badness|relative error]] than anything else with this property until [[4501edo|4501]]. It is also the first division past [[311edo|311]] with a lower 43-limit relative error. One step of it is the [[Relative_cent|relative cent]] for [[16edo|16]].
The '''1600 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''1600edo'''), or the '''1600-tone equal temperament''' ('''1600tet'''), '''1600 equal temperament''' ('''1600et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, divides the [[octave]] into 1600 [[equal]] parts of about {{sigfig| 1200/1600 }} [[cent]]s each.
