3476 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 3476edo or 3476ed2), also called 3476-tone equal temperament (3476tet) or 3476 equal temperament (3476et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 3476 equal parts of about 0.345 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/3476, or the 3476th root of 2.

3476edo is consistent to the 7-odd-limit, though it has large errors on harmonics 3 and 7. In the 7-limit, it tempers out the skeetsma. Aside from this, it is a strong 2.5.11.17.23 subgroup tuning.

Subsets and supersets

Since 3476 factors as 22 × 11 × 79, 3476edo has nontrivial subset edos 2, 4, 11, 22, 44, 79, 158, 316, 869, 1738.

10428edo, which divides the edostep in three, is consistent in the 21-odd-limit and corrects the harmonics 3 and 7.
