 #Overview
+##Tunings vs. scales
+##Scales vs. MIDI notes
 #Scala scale file
 ##What the scale file does
+###Defines the notes of the tuning and their intervallic relationship
+###Identifies one MIDI note as the tuning base
 ##Alternative methods for specifying a tuning
+###By frequency ratio with the tuning base
+###By cents from the tuning base
 ##Scala scale file format
 #Scala keyboard mapping file
 ##What the keyboard mapping file does
-###Set the base note of the scale file [which may also be the music's tonic]
+###Sets one MIDI note as the tuning reference note
-###Set the tuning center [aka diapason or reference pitch]
+###Sets the pitch frequency of the tuning reference note, and indirectly all the others
-###Map pitches to the keyboard [or other controller]
+###Identifies which MIDI notes will be retuned
-##Just intonation tunings and their tonic pitch
+###Maps the tuning to the MIDI notes of the controller
-##Linear keyboard mapping vs. alternatives
+##Scala keyboard mapping file format
+#Scala tuning in practice
+##Tonic vs. tuning base
+##Just intonation tunings and their tonic
+##Linear keyboard mapping
 ##Tunings with fewer or more than 12 pitches per octave or equave
-##Uncommon keyboard formats
+##Uncommon controller formats
-##Scala keyboard mapping file format
