321 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 321edo or 321ed2), also called 321-tone equal temperament (321tet) or 321 equal temperament (321et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 321 equal parts of about 3.74 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/321, or the 321st root of 2.

Theory

321edo is inconsistent in the 5-odd-limit. The patent val tempers out 2401/2400, 5120/5103 and 10976/10935 in the 7-limit, supporting hemififths. In the 11-limit it tempers out 385/384 and 1375/1372, and in the 13-limit 325/324, 352/351, 847/845, 2080/2079 and 4096/4095, providing the optimal patent val for 11- and 13-limit akea temperament.
