Scales based on this mean — or “phi”, as it is often called, after the Greek letter used to represent it — are relatively well-known, and these “golden” scales have been described by [[wikipedia:Erv_Wilson|Erv Wilson]], [[Kraig Grady|~~Kraig_Grady~~]], [http://www.elvenminstrel.com/music/tuning/horagrams/horagram_intro.htm David J. Finnamore], [https://ia800908.us.archive.org/31/items/mosedo.html/mosedo.html Billy Stiltner], [[wikipedia:Paul_Erlich|Paul Erlich]], [[Graham Breed|Graham Breed]], [[Dave Keenan|Dave Keenan]], [[Margo Schulter|Margo Schulter]], [[Das Goldene Tonsystem|Thorvald Kornerup]] and many others.

But is only the first of an infinite sequence of such metallic means which can be used to generate scales offering interesting musical possibilities. And while some attention has been given to silver scales, what we seek to do here is centralize all met-MOS knowledge and generalize principles across all of the metallic means.
