A family of scales is a certain set of scales, finite or infinite, generated according to a regular and exactly specified method. Examples of scale families are EDOs, equal-step tunings, MOS, and Fokker blocks. Below are some further scale families.

Fokker blocks

Euler-Fokker genera

Cartesian scales

Tonality diamonds

Breed diamonds

Diaconv scales

Scale products and scale powers

Combination product sets

Dwarves

Marvelous dwarves

Especially tempered dwarves

Elves

Hobbits

Clippers

Maximal harmony epimorphic scales

Lesfip scales

Highschool scales

Crystal balls

Chord cubes

Essentially tempered scales

Yantras

Overtone scales

Todo: rework , review heading structure, improve layout, improve synopsis
