| ← 1888edo | 1889edo | 1890edo → |
1889 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 1889edo or 1889ed2), also called 1889-tone equal temperament (1889tet) or 1889 equal temperament (1889et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 1889 equal parts of about 0.635 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/1889, or the 1889th root of 2.
Theory
1889edo is strong in the 23-limit, though 1578, which among other things has a lower 23-limit relative error, rather puts it in the shade. It is distinctly consistent through the 27-odd-limit, but not, unlike 1578, to the 29-odd-limit. Even so, it should be noted that it supplies the optimal patent val for the 7-limit monzismic temperament.
