	In a [[regular temperament]], a '''convex scale''' is a set of pitches that form a '''convex set''' in the interval lattice of the temperament. The "regular temperament" is often [[Just intonation\|JI]], in which case the lattice is the familiar JI lattice, but convex scales exist for any regular temperament.
