[[Category:17-tone scales]]
== Bonus scales: the Batch 89 JI scales ==
[[Category:19-tone scales]]
These [[just intonation|just intonation scales]] were documented in honour of the members of Batch 89, as depicted in the 2023 film ''Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3''. The scales were first documented in 2026.
[[Category:89-limit]]
 
[[Category:Subgroup temperaments]]
=== Otonal Batch 89 scale ===
[[Category:Temperament collections]]
The scale degrees were selected by:
[[Category:Listen]]
# ''converting each of the letters of Floor's name to a number using the A1Z26 cypher''
# ''then summing the numbers together to get one scale degree''
# ''then repeating this process but for Teefs, Lylla and Rocket to get three more scale degrees''
# ''then adding the octave, so that identical copies of the scale are infinitely reflected up and down the pitch spectrum, reflecting that these characters will be together forever''
# ''then using {{w|negative harmony}} to change the scale from utonal to otonal, to reflect how the characters found wonder even in a dark situation and used it to make the galaxy a brighter place''
 
This results in the following scale:
* 110/89
* 124/89
* 132/89
* 144/89
* 178/89
 
Which is a subset of [[89afdo]] (''see [[afdo]]'').
 
==== Edo approximations ====
 
Edos with nice-sounding approximations of this scale include:
* [[14edo]]: 4 3 1 2 4
* [[17edo]]: 5 3 2 2 5
* [[20edo]]: 6 4 1 3 6
* [[21edo]]: 6 4 2 3 6
* [[23edo]]: 7 4 2 3 7 ''(closest to JI until 65edo)''
* [[24edo]]: 7 4 3 3 7
* [[26edo]]: 8 4 1 3 8
* [[27edo]]: 8 5 2 4 8
* [[30edo]]: 9 5 3 4 9
* [[31edo]]: 9 6 3 4 9
* [[34edo]]: 10 6 3 5 10
* [[37edo]]: 11 7 3 5 11
* [[40edo]]: 12 7 4 5 12
* [[44edo]]: 13 8 4 6 13
* [[46edo]]: 14 8 4 6 14
* [[53edo]]: 16 9 5 7 16
* [[60edo]]: 18 9 5 8 18
* [[65edo]]: 20 11 6 8 20

=== Nonoctave Batch 89 scale ===
The scale degrees were selected by:
# ''converting the first letter Floor's name to a number using the A1Z26 cypher''
# ''then repeating this process but for Teefs, Lylla and Rocket to get three more numbers''
# ''at this stage we now have the numbers 6, 12, 18 and 20''
# ''now we list every JI ratio that is a combination of these two numbers, e.g. 12/6, 20/12, etc.''
# ''then we sort these in order from the smallest interval to the largest, using the largest as the scale [[period]]''
 
This results in the following scale:
* 20/18
* 18/12
* 20/12
* 12/6
* 18/6
* 20/6
