3709 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 3709edo or 3709ed2), also called 3709-tone equal temperament (3709tet) or 3709 equal temperament (3709et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 3709 equal parts of about 0.324 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/3709, or the 3709th root of 2.

Theory

3709edo is consistent to the 5-limit and the error of its harmonic 3 is very high. It is strong in the 2.5.21.11.13.23.31 subgroup, tempering out 213003/212992. 1024023/1024000, 5767168/5767125, 78375843/78369280, 44925111/44921875 and 4178302734375/4177455546368.
