577 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 577edo or 577ed2), also called 577-tone equal temperament (577tet) or 577 equal temperament (577et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 577 equal parts of about 2.08 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/577, or the 577th root of 2.
Theory
577edo is consistent to the 7-odd-limit, but its harmonic 3 is about halfway its steps. In the 2.9.5.7.11 subgroup interpretation, it tempers out 26873856/26796875, 184528125/184473632 and 1640558367/1638400000 in the 7-limit; 5632/5625, 102487/102400, 151263/151250, and 472392/471625 in the 11-limit.

Subsets and supersets
577edo is the 106th prime edo. 1154edo, which doubles it, gives a good correction to the harmonic 3, but it does poorly in the harmonics 5 and 7. 2308edo, which quadruples it, also gives a good correction to the harmonic 3 and is consistent to the 11-odd-limit.
