Paraconcoctic scales are those, which in a pure sense are the octave inversions of one another. For example, a {7/10}'s generator is 3, and of {3/10} is 7. Since octave-inverting the MOS generator has no impact on the scale, paraconcoctic scales are identical to their usual counterparts. However, the difference is pronounced in keyboard making - in paraconcoctic scales, white keys' generator will be the amount of black keys and vice versa. The formula for such a scale is | Paraconcoctic scales are those, which in a pure sense are the octave inversions of one another. For example, a {7/10}'s generator is 3, and of {3/10} is 7.
