295 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 295edo or 295ed2), also called 295-tone equal temperament (295tet) or 295 equal temperament (295et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 295 equal parts of about 4.07 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/295, or the 295th root of 2.

295edo is only consistent to the 5-odd-limit and harmonic 3 is about halfway between its steps. Otherwise it does well in approximating harmonics 5 and 7, making it suitable for a 2.9.5.7 subgroup interpretation. Using the full 7-limit interpretation nonetheless, the 295d val is a tuning for the octagar temperament, and 295ccdd is a tuning for sensi.
