← 404edo | 405edo | 406edo → |
405 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 405edo or 405ed2), also called 405-tone equal temperament (405tet) or 405 equal temperament (405et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 405 equal parts of about 2.96 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/405, or the 405th root of 2.
Theory
405edo is enfactored in the 3-limit, with the same tuning as 135edo. Like 135edo, it is consistent to the 7-odd-limit with a poor approximation to the harmonic 5. Using the patent val, the equal temperament tempers out 15625/15552 in the 5-limit; 2100875/2097152, and 2460375/2458624 in the 7-limit; 1375/1372, 4000/3993, 19712/19683, and 41503/41472 in the 11-limit. It supports marthirds, novemkleismic and kleirtismic. It provides the optimal patent val for 7- and 11-limit novemkleismic.
