-By a ''family of scales'' is meant a certain set of scales, finite or infinite, generated according to a regular and exactly specified method.
+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 [[EDO]]<nowiki/>s, [https://en.xen.wiki/w/Equal-step_tuning equal-step tunings], [[MOSScales|MOS]], and [[Fokker blocks]]. Below are some further scale families.
