Warped scales: Added other examples
Line 1,662: Line 1,662:
A somewhat generalized notion of warping, described by the addition, removal, or substitution of a single step. The most common scales of 12edo are used as examples: 5L 2s, the whole-tone scale (effectively 6edo), the chromatic scale (effectively 12edo), and the diminished scale (4L 4s, hardness of 2).

=== Warped 5L 2s ===
The simplest ways to warp a scale are through the addition of a step and the removal of a step. Substitution of a step, where one step is changed for a step of a different size, can be thought of removing a step of one size and adding a step of a different size.
