-By a ''family of scales'' is meant a certain set of scales, finite or infinite, generated according to a regular and exactly specified method. Examples of scale families are [[Equal_Temperaments|equal temperaments]], [[MOSScales|MOS]], and [[Fokker_blocks|Fokker blocks]]. Below are some further scale families.
