The 217 equal divisions of the octave (217edo), or the 217(-tone) equal temperament (217tet, 217et) when viewed from a regular temperament perspective, is the equal division of the octave into 217 parts of about 5.53 cents each.
Theory
217edo is a strong 19-limit system, the smallest uniquely consistent in the 19-odd-limit and consistent to the 21-odd-limit. It shares the same 5th and 7th harmonics with 31edo (217 = 7 × 31), as well as the 11/9 interval (supporting the birds temperament). However, compared to 31edo, its patent val differ on the mappings for 3, 11, 13, 17 and 19 – in fact, this edo has a very accurate 13th harmonic, as well as the 19/15 interval.
It tempers out the parakleisma, [8 14 -13⟩, and the escapade comma, [32 -7 -9⟩ in the 5-limit; 3136/3125, 4375/4374, 10976/10935 and 823543/819200 in the 7-limit; 441/440, 4000/3993, 5632/5625, and 16384/16335 in the 11-limit; 364/363, 676/675, 1001/1000, 1575/1573, 2080/2079 and 4096/4095 in the 13-limit; 595/594, 833/832, 936/935, 1156/1155, 1225/1224, 1701/1700 in the 17-limit; 343/342, 476/475, 969/968, 1216/1215, 1445/1444, 1521/1520 and 1540/1539 in the 19-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for the 11- and 13-limit arch and the 11- and 13-limit cotoneum.
