"Otones 8-16" refers to a scale generated by taking the 8th through 16th harmonics of the harmonic series. Dante Rosati calls this the "Diatonic Harmonic Series Scale" and Denny Genovese calls this "Mode 8 of the Harmonic Series". It may be treated as octave-repeating, or not. The frequency ratio between the steps of the scale can be represented as 8:9:10:11:12:13:14:15:16. Note that 16, being a doubling of 8, is an octave above the first tone.

Otones 8-16 contains eight tones in the octave and eight different step sizes. The steps get smaller as the scale ascends:
