I have some scales ready in Scala format on my website [https://tilde.town/~tromboneboi9/scales.html here].

=== ~~Blues scale in 10-EDO~~ ===

=== "Drewnian" Scale System ===

I ~~kinda like the '''3 1 1 1 2 2''' scale in 10~~-~~EDO, it works alright as a Blues~~ scale~~. I think the second degree (3\10) is a bit sharper than it should~~, ~~in fact a lot of intervals are "stretched out" in comparison~~ to ~~the Blues scale~~ in ~~12,~~ but ~~before~~ I ~~didn~~'~~t have very many scales in 10 under my belt except for~~ the ~~equipentatonic scale~~.

I recently developed an eleven-tone scale system, similar to Western theory in construction but by no means similar in sound. I like to think it's what Wstern tonality would look like if the [[7/4]] was prioritized over the [[5/4]].

~~I dunno~~, ~~I stick to theory more often than I should~~; ~~I use ''theoretical'' diatonic~~ intervals/scales ~~more often than~~ intervals~~/scales that actually ''sound'' diatonic~~. ~~Luckily I~~'~~ve been experimenting with 14~~-~~EDO recently~~, ~~and I think~~ it~~'s good territory to fix that~~.

It involves two scales, each built with a seven-based [[tetrachord]]. One is built with a [[8/7]], 8/7, [[49/48]] tetrachord, generating the "major" intervals; and the other is built with a 49/48, 8/7, 8/7 tetrachord, generating the "minor" intervals. As a result, the scale has very large major seconds and very small minor seconds.

The intent with these weird [[superpyth]]-like constructions is to make [[5-EDO]]-like scales with some [[49/48|extra small intervals]] for spice.

It's very easily possible to map this scale to a 12-tone keyboard, in fact it is by design a mimicry of Western tonality. However, there is no tritone. For this interval you can either use the eleventh harmonic [[11/8]], a septimal whole tone below the "minor sixth". or a septimal whole tone above the "major third".
