The 342 equal divisions of the octave (342edo), or the 342(-tone) equal temperament (342tet, 342et) when viewed from a regular temperament perspective, is the equal division of the octave into 342 parts of about 3.51 cents each.

Theory

342edo is a very strong 11-limit system. It is, as one would expect, distinctly consistent through the 11-odd-limit, but goes no higher; nonetheless, it is a zeta peak edo. A basis for the 11-limit commas is 2401/2400, 3025/3024, 4375/4374 and 32805/32768. It is the optimal patent val for 11-limit hemitert temperament, and supports hemiennealimmal.

  • 342et is lower in relative error than any previous equal temperaments in the 11-limit. Not until 612 do we find a better equal temperament in terms of absolute error, and not until 1848 do we find one in terms of relative error.
