An SN scale of rank 2, a 2-SN scale, is a [[MOS scale]]. Accordingly, SN scales are a generalization of MOS scales into arbitrary rank. ETs can be considered to be 1-SN scales, which can be generated by applying a) once, introducing a step of a single degree of the ET.

SN scales are inversionally symmetric / invariant under reversal, and may be uniquely defined by a ''step signature'' - a generalisation of the MOS signature into arbitrary rank.
