534 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 534edo or 534ed2), also called 534-tone equal temperament (534tet) or 534 equal temperament (534et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 534 equal parts of about 2.25 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/534, or the 534th root of 2.

534edo is consistent to the 7-odd-limit, but the error of harmonic 3 is quite large. The patent val tempers out 2401/2400 and 19683/19600 in the 7-limit and provides the optimal patent val for 7-limit harry temperament.
