475 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 475edo or 475ed2), also called 475-tone equal temperament (475tet) or 475 equal temperament (475et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 475 equal parts of about 2.53 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/475, or the 475th root of 2.

Theory

475edo is only consistent to the 5-odd-limit. The equal temperament tempers out [-14 -19 19 (enneadeca) and [47 -15 -10 (quintosec comma) in the 5-limit. In the 7-limit, the 475d val supports enneadecal and the patent val supports cotoneum.

It can be considered for the 2.3.5.11.13.19.23 subgroup, tempering out 2376/2375, 3250/3249, 11132/11115, 11979/11960, 14300/14283 and 42757/42750.

Subsets and supersets

Since 475 factors into 52 × 19, 475edo has subset edos 5, 19, 25, and 95. 950edo, which doubles it, gives a good correction to the harmonic 7.
