We may define the nth q-limit //Hahn shell// as the octave classes at exactly [[Hahn distance]] n from the unison in terms of the q-odd-limit Hahn norm. The number of notes in the 5-limit Hahn shell is (for n>0) 6n, and in the 7-limit Hahn shell n has 10n^2+2 notes. If we take the union of the Hahn shells up to shell n we obtain the q-limit crystal ball; the reason behind that name is that the number of notes in the 7-limit crystal balls are called crystal ball numbers or magic numbers in some chemical and crystallographic contexts. The number of notes in the nth 5-limit crystal ball is 3n^2 + 3n + 1 and in the nth 7-limit crystal ball is (2n + 1)(5n^2 + 5n + 3)/3. Because of the way they are formed crystal balls are not especially regular as scales, but they are abundantly supplied with chords.

An alternative definition, not employing Hahn distance, is that the nth 5- and 7- limit crystal balls are the nth [[Scale products and scale powers|scale powers]] of the 5- and 7-limit tonality diamonds, respectively. This easily generalizes to the scale power of the q-limit tonality diamond for any odd number q.

Because of the way they are formed crystal balls are not especially regular as scales, but they are abundantly supplied with chords.

Here are the first few 5-limit Hahn shells:
