Robust MOS inflection is where the interval of adjustment is one of the intervals which was already present within the original MOS scale. | Robust MOS inflection{{idiosyncratic}} is where the interval of adjustment is one of the intervals which was already present within the original MOS scale. | ||
This will result in a scale which is a subset of some larger MOS scale with the same generator and period. | This will result in a scale which is a subset of some larger MOS scale with the same generator and period. | ||

Semirobust MOS inflection is where the interval of adjustment is an interval which was not already present within the original MOS scale, but which is present within a larger MOS of the same generator and period. | Semirobust MOS inflection{{idiosyncratic}} is where the interval of adjustment is an interval which was not already present within the original MOS scale, but which is present within a larger MOS of the same generator and period. | ||

=== Frankenstein MOS inflection === | === Frankenstein MOS inflection === | ||
Frankenstein MOS inflection is where the interval of adjustment is the chroma of another MOS. This approach lends itself to situations where the two MOS scales are tuned using the same [[equal temperament]] (though that isn’t compulsory). | Frankenstein MOS inflection{{idiosyncratic}} is where the interval of adjustment is the chroma of another MOS.

=== Aspirational MOS inflection === | === Aspirational MOS inflection === | ||
Aspirational MOS inflection is where one step of a MOS is adjusted by exactly the right amount to tune it to a pure [[JI]] ratio, relative to the [[tonic]]. Then any other step(s) may be adjusted by increments of the same amount that initial interval was modified by. | Aspirational MOS inflection{{idiosyncratic}} is where one step of a MOS is adjusted by exactly the right amount to tune it to a pure [[JI]] ratio, relative to the [[tonic]].
