361 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 361edo or 361ed2), also called 361-tone equal temperament (361tet) or 361 equal temperament (361et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 361 equal parts of about 3.32 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/361, or the 361st root of 2.

Theory

361et is consistent to the 9-odd-limit with flat tunings of harmonics 3, 5, and 7. The equal temperament tempers out 4375/4374, 703125/702464, 2460375/2458624, 43046721/43025920, and 48828125/48771072 in the 7-limit. It supports the 5-limit submajor temperament.
