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 460 equal divisions of the octave (460edo), or the 460(-tone) equal temperament (460tet, 460et) when viewed from a regular temperament perspective, divides the octave into 460 equal parts of about 2.61 cents each.
Theory
460edo is a very strong 19-limit system and is uniquely consistent to the 21-odd-limit, with harmonics of 3 to 19 all tuned flat. It tempers out the schisma, 32805/32768, in the 5-limit and 4375/4374 and 65536/65625 in the 7-limit, so that it supports pontiac. In the 11-limit it tempers of 43923/43904, 3025/3024 and 9801/9800; in the 13-limit 1001/1000, 4225/4224 and 10648/10647; in the 17-limit 833/832, 1089/1088, 1225/1224, 1701/1700, 2058/2057, 2431/2430, 2601/2600 and 4914/4913; and in the 19-limit 1331/1330, 1445/1444, 1521/1520, 1540/1539, 1729/1728, 2376/2375, 2926/2925, 3136/3135, 3250/3249 and 4200/4199. It serves as the optimal patent val for various temperaments such as the rank-5 temperament tempering out 833/832 and 1001/1000. 460edo supports the 460 & 1789 temperament in the 2.9.5.7.11.13 subgroup called commatose.
