566 equal divisions of the octave (566edo), or 566-tone equal temperament (566tet), 566 equal temperament (566et) when viewed from a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 566 equal parts of about 2.12 ¢ each.
Theory
566edo is distinctly consistent in the 15-odd-limit. It tempers out the schisma in the 5-limit; 4375/4374 (ragisma), 65625/65536 (horwell comma), and 14348907/14336000 (skeetsma) in the 7-limit; 3025/3024 in the 11-limit; 1716/1715 and 2080/2079 in the 13-limit. It notably supports pontiac and orga.
The 566g val is interesting in the higher limits, and in the 23-limit in particular it has a great rating in terms of absolute error. It tempers out 1156/1155, 1275/1274, 2431/2430, 2500/2499 and 2601/2600 in the 17-limit; 1445/1444, 1521/1520 and 1729/1728 in the 19-limit; 1105/1104 and 2025/2024 in the 23-limit.
