443 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 443edo or 443ed2), also called 443-tone equal temperament (443tet) or 443 equal temperament (443et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 443 equal parts of about 2.71 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/443, or the 443rd root of 2.

Theory

443edo is inconsistent to the 5-odd-limit and the error of harmonic 5 is quite large. To start with, the patent val 443 702 1029 1244 1533] as well as the 443cde val 443 702 1028 1243 1532] are worth considering.

Using the patent val, the equal temperament tempers out 6144/6125, 32805/32768, and 67108864/66976875 in the 7-limit; 540/539, 5632/5625, 8019/8000, and 131072/130977 in the 11-limit. It supports hemischis, the 130 & 313 temperament.

Subsets and supersets

443edo is the 86th prime edo. 886edo, which doubles it, gives a good correction until the 11-limit.
