Pinetone: Difference between revisions

I find the diatonic and the harmonic diminished to be the most desirable of the albitonic Pinetone scales as the only ones with four 3/2s with with mean variety less than or equal to 3, along with and the major and minor harmonic octatonics as they contain 5 major/minor triads (on four roots), the most of any albitonic Pinetone scale (in comparison, the [[diminished scale]] contains 8 major/minor triads on four roots, the Meantone diatonic scale contains 6 major/minor triads on 6 roots, and Porcupine[8] contains 6 major/minor triads on 4 roots). The harmonic diminished, as well as the harmonic minor and harmonic major are not built from step-nesting, but found as subsets of child step-nested scales that can be modified by chromas to give step-nested scales.
