Given a choice of equave ''E'' and a GS ''S'' = GS(''x''<sub>1</sub>, ..., ''x''<sub>''r''</sub>), a ''splitting''{{idiosyncratic}} of ''S'' is a generator sequence GS(w<sub>1</sub>, ..., w<sub>''r''</sub>) where each w<sub>''i''</sub> is a sequence of ''k'' = ''k''(''i'') intervals, ''y''<sub>''i''1</sub>, ..., ''y''<sub>''ik''</sub>, where ''y''<sub>''i''1</sub> + ... + ''y''<sub>''ik''</sub> ≡ ''x''<sub>''i''</sub> modulo ''E''. If ''k'' does not depend on ''i'', call the splitting ''uniform''{{idiosyncratic}}. For instance, the GS for Zil, GS(8/7, 7/6, 8/7, 7/6, 8/7, 7/6, 8/7, 189/160, 8/7, 7/6) is a uniform splitting of GS(4/3, 4/3, 4/3, 27/20, 4/3), which generates Zarlino.
