The 224 equal divisions of the octave (224edo), or the 224(-tone) equal temperament (224tet, 224et) when viewed from a regular temperament perspective, is the equal division of the octave into 224 parts of about 5.36 cents each.
Theory
224edo is a very strong 13-limit system, tempering out 32805/32768 in the 5-limit; 4375/4374, 16875/16807 and 65625/65536 in the 7-limit; 540/539, 1375/1372, 4000/3993 and notably, the quartisma in the 11-limit; and 625/624, 729/728, 1575/1573 and 2200/2197 in the 13-limit, leading to an abundance of precisely-tuned essentially tempered chords, including swetismic chords, squbemic chords, and petrmic triad in the 13-odd-limit, in addition to nicolic chords in the 15-odd-limit. It defines the optimal patent val for the octoid in the 7-, 11- and 13-limit, and for mirkwai, the 7-limit planar temperament tempering out 16875/16807. It also provides an excellent tuning for indra and shibi temperaments. It is the twelfth zeta integral edo.
224 = 32 × 7, and has divisors 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 7, 14, 28, 56, and 112.
