8404 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 8404edo or 8404ed2), also called 8404-tone equal temperament (8404tet) or 8404 equal temperament (8404et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 8404 equal parts of about 0.143 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/8404, or the 8404th root of 2.
8404edo is consistent to the 13-odd-limit, but both harmonics 5 and 13 are about halfway between its steps. It is most interesting as every other step of the monstrous 16808edo, with the same extraordinary accuracy in the 2.3.25.7.11.17.23.31 subgroup.
Its perfect fifth ultimately comes from 2101edo.
