| ← 2117edo | 2118edo | 2119edo → |
2118 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 2118edo or 2118ed2), also called 2118-tone equal temperament (2118tet) or 2118 equal temperament (2118et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 2118 equal parts of about 0.567 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/2118, or the 2118th root of 2.
Theory
Primes approximated with less than 1 standard deviation in 2118edo are: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 19, 23, 29, 31, 43. Overall, it offers excellent double-13's 31-limit harmony, as both mappings of 13 (2118 and 2118f vals) have useful interpretations.
2118edo provides a 43-limit approximation of secor with 46/43 (206 steps), however this reduces to 103\1059, meaning that it is a compound of two circles of such secor. In addition, it offers a 205-step generator "meantone secor" which is described by a 31 & 2118 temperament, also in the 2.3.5.7.11.23.43 subgroup, and also offers a meantone fifth. The comma basis for the "meantone secor" temperament is 5376/5375, 9317/9315, 25921/25920, 151263/151250, and 10551296/10546875.
