Its pitches are derived from the [[harmonic series]] of a single frequency up to the [[27/1|27th harmonic]], meaning they go up to the [[27-odd-limit]], or the [[19-limit]]. The harmonic scale can be described as a subset of [[16afdo|mode 16 of the harmonic series]] where harmonics [[23/1|23]], [[25/1|25]], [[29/1|29]], and [[31/1|31]] are removed, producing a [[constant structure]]. It is also an example of including every harmonic as far out as possible while maintaining constant structure, which means it is an example of a [[ringer scale]]. | ||
