783 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 783edo or 783ed2), also called 783-tone equal temperament (783tet) or 783 equal temperament (783et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 783 equal parts of about 1.53 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/783, or the 783rd root of 2.
Theory
783edo provides solid approximations of the 5-limit, the 7-limit and to some extent the 11-limit, and is consistent up to the 11-odd-limit, making it a flexible and versatile tuning. The equal temperament tempers out the ennealimma and the counterschisma in the 5-limit; 2401/2400, and 4375/4374 in the 7-limit. It supports counterschismic, dodifo, ennealimmal, raider, vavoom, and francium.
