289 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 289edo or 289ed2), also called 289-tone equal temperament (289tet) or 289 equal temperament (289et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 289 equal parts of about 4.15 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/289, or the 289th root of 2.
Theory
289edo is a strong 5-limit system with decent 11- and 13-limit interpretations despite inconsistency in the 13-odd-limit. The equal temperament tempers out the schisma, 32805/32768 in the 5-limit; 4375/4374 and 65625/65536 in the 7-limit; 441/440 and 4000/3993 in the 11-limit; and 364/363, 676/675, 1001/1000, 1575/1573 and 2080/2079 in the 13-limit.
It is the optimal patent val for the 13-limit rank-5 temperament tempering out 364/363, and the 13-limit history temperament, which tempers out 364/363, 441/440 and 676/675. It provides a good tuning for the 11-limit version also. It is also the optimal patent val for sextilififths, quintaschis, and quincy in both the 11- and 13-limit.
