Next, if the number of periods in an octave "n" was greater than 1, type in "extend m" at the bottom, where m is however many steps you want in an octave; it should be n times the number you entered when it asked for size. In this case, we entered 5 for size and n=2, so we type in "extend 10". | Next, if the number of periods in an octave "n" was greater than 1, type in "extend m" at the bottom, where m is however many steps you want in an octave; it should be n times the number you entered when it asked for size.

If you want to be sure to end up with a [[MOSScales|MOS]], start the process by typing "lineartemp /wellformed" at the beginning, instead of just "lineartemp". Later, instead of "extend m", type in "extend /absolute 1200.0" if you are using pure octaves. If you are using adjusted octaves, use the first number of "Tuning Map (cents)" on Grahams's page; in the example we are using, that would be 1197.719, so you'd type in "extend /absolute 1198.719". | |||
