337 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 337edo or 337ed2), also called 337-tone equal temperament (337tet) or 337 equal temperament (337et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 337 equal parts of about 3.56 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/337, or the 337th root of 2.

Theory

337edo is consistent to the 9-odd-limit, but the error of harmonic 5 is quite large. If the harmonic is used at all, it tends very flat. The equal temperament tempers out 16875/16807, 420175/419904, and 5250987/5242880 in the 7-limit. It supports tokko and sqrtphi.
