Both OS and AFS are equivalent to taking an overtone series and adding (or subtracting) a constant amount of frequency (for OS it is rational, for AFS it is probably irrational). By doing this, the step sizes remain equal in frequency, but their relationship in pitch changes. For a detailed explanation of this, see the later section on the [[OS#Derivation|derivation]].

Yet another term for this structure is an [[isoharmonic series]].
 
=== Vs. OD ===


By specifying n, your OS will be equivalent to some [[OD|OD (otonal division)]]. E.g. 8-OS3/4 = 8-OD7, because 8(3/4) = 6, so you will have traveled 6 away from the root of 1, and reached 7.
