One of his most known works, ''24 Préludes dans tous les tons de l'échelle chromatique diatonisée à 13 sons'', introduces an [[11L 2s]] [[MOS scale]], generated by a circle of "[[major fourth]]s" of [[24edo]] (550[[Cent|¢]] ≈ [[11/8]]) and which he treats as a "diatonicized chromatic scale" in reference to the similar structure of the [[5L 2s|diatonic]] scale.
