 === 6ed7/3''+''7edo scale ===
 {{main|6ed7/3#6ed7/3+7edo scale}}
+=== 7/6s-and-4/3s scale ===
+In a public post on the [[Xenharmonic Alliance]] Discord server, in early October 2025, Gutierrez described the 8-tone JI scale:
+* 28/27 - 7/6 - 4/3 - 112/81 - 14/9 - 392/243 - 16/9 - 2/1
+It has step pattern:
+* 28/27 - 9/8 - 8/7 - 28/27 - 9/8 - 28/27 - 54/49 - 9/8
+She recommended tempering it to [[36edo]], where it has step pattern:
+* 2 6 7 2 6 2 5 6
+=== Gutierrez-Lambeth quasi-subharmonic pentatonic ===
+In a public post on the [[Xenharmonic Alliance]] Discord server, in late September 2025, Gutierrez described the 4-tone JI chord 7/6 - 40/27 - 11/5 - 7/2.
+In a reply, [[Budjarn Lambeth]] noted that the shape of the step pattern looked like the [[subharmonic series]], and adding a 6/1 would preserve this shape.
+Gutierrez thought the 6/1 was a great addition and resolved to use this scale/chord in a future piece.
+Its intervals are:
+* 7/6
+* 40/27
+* 11/5
+* 7/2
+* 6/1

+== Sun-after-a-storm pentachord ==
-In a public post on the [[Xenharmonic Alliance]] Discord server, in late September 2025, Gutierrez described the 4-tone JI chord 7/6 - 40/27 - 11/5 - 7/2.
+This is a JI chord which can also be used as a [[pentatonic]] scale. Gutierrez first described it on the [[Xenharmonic Alliance]] Discord server in early October 2025, where she described it as a "very bright minor, like the sun coming out after a storm". Its intervals are:
+* 20/17

+Budjarn Lambeth then noted that, if used as a scale, it works very well with many of the aperiodic timbres in [[Scale Workshop]] (jegogan, jublag, ugal, gender, bronze, steel, silver and platinum). He described it as sounding like "a coral reef full of sea shells and whimsical little sea creatures" and provided this [https://scaleworkshop.plainsound.org/scale/PJt1wZJDl Scale Workshop preset] for it.
