In music, 17 tone equal temperament is the quarter tone scale.
17-ET is the tuning of the syntonic temperament in which the tempered perfect fifth is equal to 705.88 cents, as shown in Figure 1 (look for the label "17-TET"). On an isomorphic keyboard, the fingering of music composed in 17-ET is precisely the same as it is in any other syntonic tuning (such as 12-ET), so long as the notes are spelled properly -- that is, with no assumption of enharmonicity.
17-ET is where every other step in the 34-ET scale is included, and the others are not accessible. Conversely 34-ET is a subdivision of 17-ET.
