398 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 398edo or 398ed2), also called 398-tone equal temperament (398tet) or 398 equal temperament (398et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 398 equal parts of about 3.02 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/398, or the 398th root of 2.
Theory
398edo is only consistent to the 5-odd-limit, though it has a reasonable approximation to the full 13-limit using the patent val, which tempers out 10976/10935, 65625/65536, 1500625/1492992, 102760448/102515625, 102942875/102036672, and 200120949/200000000 in the 7-limit; 3025/3024, 4000/3993, 6250/6237, 59290/59049, 117649/117128, and 131072/130977 in the 11-limit; and 625/624, 1575/1573, 2080/2079, 2200/2197, 4096/4095, and 4225/4224 in the 13-limit. It supports yarman I, bisupermajor and semiquindromeda.
