Gallery of 12-tone just intonation scales: Difference between revisions

One approach to making just intonation not only practical but easy is to map an [[Periodic_scale|octave-repeating]] 12-tone JI scale to a standard keyboard. This page collects some of these scales, and a [[Gallery_of_12-tone_Tempered_Scales|companion page]] does the same for tempered scales.
