2901 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 2901edo or 2901ed2), also called 2901-tone equal temperament (2901tet) or 2901 equal temperament (2901et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 2901 equal parts of about 0.414 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/2901, or the 2901st root of 2.

Theory

2901edo is consistent in the 17-odd-limit and is otherwise an excellent 31-limit system, with only the pair {19/17, 34/19} being mapped inconsistently in the 31-odd-limit. It provides a good tuning for the jacobin temperament in the 13-limit, the rank-5 temperament tempering out 6656/6655. Alongside jacobin, it tunes the tridecimal quartismic temperament, which also tempers out 123201/123200. It also tunes the monzismic temperament.
