1400 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 1400edo or 1400ed2), also called 1400-tone equal temperament (1400tet) or 1400 equal temperament (1400et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 1400 equal parts of about 0.857 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/1400, or the 1400th root of 2.

Theory

1400edo is consistent in the 5-limit, where provides the optimal patent val for the 5-limit vishnuzmic temperament. Aside from that it is poor at simple harmony. In higher limits, it is good at the 2.3.19.23.29.31 subgroup. . It also tempers out the linus comma and the barium comma.

Aside from the patent val, there is a number of mappings to be considered. 1400cd val uses the 28edo mapping for 5 and gives a tuning close to the POTE tuning for the 11-limit oquatonic temperament. 1400ccdd val is a tuning for the 11-limit silicon temperament. It is worth noting, patent val can be considered a tuning for the 2.3.11 subgroup silicon - for which it conveniently provides a 70-tone mos reaching 3/2 in 1 generator up and 11/8 in 3 generators down. 1400bbbc val is a tuning for the manganese temperament.
