4243 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 4243edo or 4243ed2), also called 4243-tone equal temperament (4243tet) or 4243 equal temperament (4243et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 4243 equal parts of about 0.283 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/4243, or the 4243rd root of 2.

Theory

4243edo is consistent to the 9-odd-limit, tempering out 78125000/78121827, [46 -14 -3 -6 and [-14 26 4 -13 in the 7-limit. Its harmonic 3 has a remarkably low relative error of 0.4 percent. As an equal temperament, 4243edo is strong in the 2.3.5.13.17.19 subgroup, tempering out 104976/104975, 28900/28899, 19922944/19921875, 8450649/8450000 and 18051780123/18050000000. It also tempers out the lakisma in the 2.3.5.17.19 subgroup and 7956/7955 in the 2.3.5.13.17.37.43 subgroup. 4243edo supports whoosh.
