362 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 362edo or 362ed2), also called 362-tone equal temperament (362tet) or 362 equal temperament (362et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 362 equal parts of about 3.31 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/362, or the 362nd root of 2.

Theory

362edo is enfactored in the 3-limit and is only consistent to the 5-odd-limit, with two mappings possible for the 7-limit:

  • 362 574 841 1016] (patent val),
  • 362 574 841 1017] (362d).

Using the patent val, it tempers out 393216/390625 and [25 -48 22 in the 5-limit; 4375/4374, 458752/455625 and 11529602/11390625 in the 7-limit, supporting barbados.

Using the 362d val, it tempers out 393216/390625 and [25 -48 22 in the 5-limit; 5120/5103, 118098/117649 and 1959552/1953125 in the 7-limit.

Subsets and supersets

Since 362 factors into 2 × 181, 372edo has 2edo and 181edo as its subsets. 1448edo, which quadruples it, is a strong full 13-limit system.
