293EDO is the equal division of the octave into 293 parts of 4.0956 cents each.

293EDO is the 62nd prime EDO.

Theory

Script error: No such module "primes_in_edo". 293 edo does not approximate prime harmonics well all the way into the 41st. The first harmonic that it approximates within 1 standard deviation of one step is 43rd, which is 10 cents flat compared to the just intonated interval.

When it comes to the intervals that are not octave-reduced prime harmonics, some which are well-approximated are 6/5, 11/7, 17/11, 19/17, 24/23, 25/17, and 25/19. 21/16, which is a composite octave-reduced harmonic, is also well represented. These numbers are related to poor approximation of prime harmonics by cancelling out of the errors. For example, 19th and 17th harmoincs have +36 and +37 error respectively, which cancels out to about 1 rc.

One step of 293edo is at the edge of human pitch perception of 3.5 cents. When combined with low harmonicity, this opens 293edo to a wide range of interpretations.
