305 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 305edo or 305ed2), also called 305-tone equal temperament (305tet) or 305 equal temperament (305et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 305 equal parts of about 3.93 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/305, or the 305th root of 2.

305edo has a flat tendency, with the 3, 5, 7 and 11 of the patent val all flat, and the equal temperament tempers out 2109375/2097152, the semicomma (orson comma) in the 5-limit, 2401/2400 in the 7-limit, and 243/242, 441/440, and 540/539 in the 11-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for 7- and 11-limit neominor temperament.
