By a ''family of scales'' is meant a certain set of scales, finite or infinite, generated according to a regular and exactly specified method. Examples of scale families are [[EDO|EDOs]], [https://en.xen.wiki/w/Equal-step_tuning equal-step tunings], [[MOSScales|MOS]], and [[Fokker blocks]]. Below are some further scale families.
