| ← 264edo | 265edo | 266edo → |
265 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 265edo or 265ed2), also called 265-tone equal temperament (265tet) or 265 equal temperament (265et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 265 equal parts of about 4.53 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/265, or the 265th root of 2.
265 = 5 × 53, and 265edo is enfactored in the 5-limit, tempering out the same commas as 53edo, including 15625/15552 and 32805/32768. In the 7-limit it tempers out 16875/16807 and 420175/419904, so that it supports sqrtphi, for which it provides the optimal patent val. In the 11-limit it tempers out 540/539, 1375/1372 and 4375/4356, and gives the optimal patent val for 11-limit sqrtphi temperament.
