-An '''overtone scale''' is an octave-long subset of the [[harmonic series]] repeating at the octave. Alternative terms for overtone scale include '''ADO''' (arithmetic divisions of the octave) due to an overtone scale being an arithmetically equal division of the octave, and '''ODO''' ([[otonal division]]s of the octave).
+An '''overtone scale''' is an octave-long subset of the [[harmonic series]] repeating at the octave. It is also known as an '''AFDO''' (arithmetic frequency divisions of the octave) due to an overtone scale being an arithmetically equal division of the octave, and '''ODO''' ([[otonal division]]s of the octave).
-An overtone scale with n notes maybe referred to as mode n of the [[harmonic series]] or n-ADO. For example, [[Mode 5]] is a pentatonic scale with the intervals [[1/1]]-[[6/5]]-[[7/5]]-[[8/5]]-[[9/5]]-[[2/1]] or the 5th to 10th harmonics:
