Are you interested in microtonal music with wild and wacky harmonies but want some familiarity to guide you? Heard about this Porcupine thing but not sure how to get 12 notes of it? Introducing The Porcutone System. The scales you know and love, with a new-age quirky spin. The perfect mix of consonant and dissonant harmonies, familiar and newfangled. Try it on your keyboard straight away (if you can return your keyboard using scale files, grab [[Porcutone chromatic (sharps)|this one]]! Copy the text into notepad and save as a .scl file).

The porcupine systems combines Porcupine with Meantone - the system underpinning most common practice music from the last several hundred years, so all the same scales (diatonic, harmonic minor, pentatonic, chromatic, etc.) are still available, just with a new Porcupine spin!
