355 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 355edo or 355ed2), also called 355-tone equal temperament (355tet) or 355 equal temperament (355et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 355 equal parts of about 3.38 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/355, or the 355th root of 2.

Theory

355edo is only consistent to the 3-odd-limit since the errors of harmonics 3 and 5 are quite large. It is suitable for the 2.9.5.11.17.19.23.37.41 subgroup. The 2.3.7.13 subgroup is also worth noting.

Subsets and supersets

Since 355 factors into 5 × 71, 355edo has 5edo and 71edo as its subsets. 710edo, which doubles it, gives a good correction to the harmonic 3.
