2100 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 2100edo or 2100ed2), also called 2100-tone equal temperament (2100tet) or 2100 equal temperament (2100et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 2100 equal parts of about 0.571 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/2100, or the 2100th root of 2.
The patent val tempers out 32805/32768 in the 5-limit and 2401/2400 in the 7-limit, and thereby provides an excellent tuning for 5-limit schismatic aka helmholtz temperament, and the 7-limit sesquiquartififths temperament. As with any equal division of this size, it supports a number of possible meantone tunings, but the 1219\2100 fifth is notable for being an extremely close approximation to quarter-comma meantone.
