350 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 350edo or 350ed2), also called 350-tone equal temperament (350tet) or 350 equal temperament (350et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 350 equal parts of about 3.43 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/350, or the 350th root of 2.

350edo has a sharp tendency, with harmonics 3 to 11 all tuned sharp. The equal temperament tempers out 1600000/1594323, the amity comma, in the 5-limit, and 4375/4374, 5120/5103 and 6144/6125 in the 7-limit, and it provides the optimal patent val for the 7-limit amity temperament. In the 11-limit it tempers out 3025/3024 and 9801/9800, and provides the optimal patent val for 11-limit hemiamity, whereas the 350f val is an excellent tuning for 13-limit hemiamity.
