As opposed to in [[12edo]], each key is distinctly different in Pinetone scales, both a blessing and a curse.

Additionally available in Pinetone are a set of octatonic modes with their own Porcupine-like functional harmony that combine [[Porcupine]][8] with the [[oneirotonic]] modes that are gaining popularity at the moment. Finally, Pinetone diminished scales combine Porcupine with the familiar diminished scale.

If you have a [[Lumatone]], you can use the standard Bosanquet mapping for 12edo. The white keys are the Pinetone diatonic, a cross between the Meantone diatonic scale and Porcupine[7], and the black keys give the Pinetone pentatonic, which approximates the [[just intonation]] pentatonic scale 9/8 5/4 3/2 5/3 2/1. I've chosen to colour the G♯/A♭ key pink, and the other chromatic keys blue, because I'm a proud trans woman and a big nerd. You can use any colours, but I find it helps to colour the G♯/A♭ key a different colour since that's the one chromatic key used along with the diatonic keys to make the Pinetone octatonic.

If you don't have a [[Lumatone]], no worries, you can set it up just fine on any keyboard!
