130 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 130edo or 130ed2), also called 130-tone equal temperament (130tet) or 130 equal temperament (130et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 130 equal parts of about 9.23 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 2^1/130, or the 130th root of 2.

Theory

130edo is a zeta peak edo, a zeta peak integer edo, and a zeta integral edo but not a gap edo. It is distinctly consistent to the 15-odd-limit and is the first nontrivial edo to be consistent in the 14-odd-prime-sum-limit. As an equal temperament, it tempers out 2401/2400, 3136/3125, 6144/6125, and 19683/19600 in the 7-limit; 243/242, 441/440, 540/539, and 4000/3993 in the 11-limit; and 351/350, 364/363, 676/675, 729/728, 1001/1000, 1575/1573, 1716/1715, 2080/2079, 4096/4095, and 4225/4224 in the 13-limit. It can be used to tune a variety of temperaments, including hemiwürschmidt, sesquiquartififths, harry and hemischis. It also can be used to tune the rank-3 temperament jove, tempering out 243/242 and 441/440, plus 364/363 for the 13-limit and 595/594 for the 17-limit. It gives the optimal patent val for 11-limit hemiwürschmidt and sesquart and 13-limit harry.

Subsets and supersets

Since 130 factors into 2 × 5 × 13, 130edo has subset edos 2, 5, 10, 13, 26, and 65.

260edo, which divides the edostep in two, provides a strong correction for the 29th harmonic.
