* '''Weak epimorphism''': A scale is weakly epimorphic if, under some val, all scale degrees are "filled," no matter which note you choose as the tonic.

* '''Epimorphism''': A weakly epimorphic scale is epimorphic if it keeps rising in pitch as you go to higher scale degrees – the (n + 1)st degree is higher than the nth degree.

* '''Epimorph val/temperament''': A val that witnesses that a scale is epimorphic is called the ''epimorph val'' of the scale, and a temperament supported by an epimorph val is an ''epimorph temperament''. Many low-accuracy edos and temperaments are useful as epimorph vals and temperaments; a CS scale may be constructed as a detempering of the low-accuracy ~~scales~~ implied by such ~~temperaments~~.

* '''Epimorph val/temperament''': A val that witnesses that a scale is epimorphic is called the ''epimorph val'' of the scale, and a temperament supported by an epimorph val is an ''epimorph temperament''. Many low-accuracy edos and temperaments are useful as epimorph vals and temperaments; a CS scale may be constructed as a detempering of the low-accuracy tuning implied by such a temperament.
