* [[Equal-step tuning]]s: Tunings that use a single interval (and combinations thereof) to form a subtle monoculture of intervals. These include [[edo]]s (equal divisions of the octave), but also [[edonoi]] (equal divisions of [[nonoctave]] intervals). | * [[Equal-step tuning]]s: Tunings that use a single interval (and combinations thereof) to form a subtle monoculture of intervals.

*[[MOS scale|Moment of symmetry (MOS)]]: Tunings (or better, scales) that use iterations of a generating interval, modulo a period interval, to produce scales of two step-sizes. | *[[MOS scale|Moment of symmetry (MOS)]]: Tunings (or better, scales) that use iterations of a generating interval, modulo a period interval, to produce scales of two step-sizes. | ||
