308 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 308edo or 308ed2), also called 308-tone equal temperament (308tet) or 308 equal temperament (308et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 308 equal parts of about 3.9 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/308, or the 308th root of 2.
Theory
308edo only is consistent in the 5-odd-limit. Ignoring the harmonics 7, 11 and 13, it is strong in the 2.3.5.17.19.23.29.31 subgroup.
Using the patent val nonetheless, the equal temperament tempers out 19683/19600, 65625/65536, and 390625/388962 in the 7-limit, and 243/242, 1375/1372, 6250/6237, 9801/9800, and 14700/14641 in the 11-limit.
Using the 308d val, it supports unidec and gammic.
