677 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 677edo or 677ed2), also called 677-tone equal temperament (677tet) or 677 equal temperament (677et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 677 equal parts of about 1.77 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/677, or the 677th root of 2.

Theory

While it does well as a 2.3.5.11 tuning system, it's notable for its high accuracy among EDOs of about its size and lower with the first several metallic ratios. Among those, it tunes acoustic phi (the golden ratio) and the acoustic copper ratio each with less than 1% relative error. The first nine metallic ratios are all tuned within 20% of an edostep.
