This page presents a novelty topic.

It may contain ideas which are less likely to find practical applications in music, or numbers or structures that are arbitrary or exceedingly small, large, or complex.

Novelty topics are often developed by a single person or a small group. As such, this page may also contain idiosyncratic terms, notation, or conceptual frameworks.

The 777 equal divisions of the octave, or the 777-tone equal temperament (777tet), 777 equal temperament (777et) when viewed from a regular temperament perspective, divides the octave into 777 equal parts of about 1.544 cents each.

Theory

777edo is a dual fifths system with a consistency limit of only 3.

If the harmonic 3 is excluded, it is an excellent 2.5.7.9.11.13 subgroup tuning, with the comma basis {4459/4455, 41503/41472, 496125/495616, 123201/123200, 105644/105625}. In addition, it tempers out the landscape comma in the 2.9.5.7 subgroup.
