'''Straw''' is a 24-note [[just intonation]] scale with a long tube-shaped lattice. It is a [[constant structure]] [[7-limit]] detemper of [[24edo#Uniform maps|24c]], and is a subset of the 29-note [[Monorail]] scale. [[Abnormality]] has noted how an ordinary [[Halberstadt keyboard]] matches with the notes of Straw remarkably well, thus playing this scale on such a keyboard has significant potential in practice.

They also note that the [[315/256]] can be changed to a [[32/27]] to make the scale more optimized for the [[otonal]] 4:5:6 and 6:7:8 chords over their [[utonal]] counterparts. This new scale is called '''Modstraw''', short for "Modified Straw".
