'''Nonoctave''' scales come in many varieties, but what unites them is an aversion of [[octave]]s. A common approach to building a sensible scale without octaves is to divide some nonoctave interval into logarithmically [[Equal|equal]] parts, as one would divide the octave to arrive at an [[EDO|EDO]]. Such a scale is sometimes called an [[edonoi|EDONOI]], short for "equal divisions of a nonoctave interval". One can also build rational scales with nonoctave repeats or no repeat (e.g. [[Superparticular-Nonoctave-MOS|Superparticular-Nonoctave-MOS]]). Nonoctave scales may contain a "near octave" or "tempered octave" which would be an interval near but not exactly 1200¢. In this category, there are stretched octaves and compressed octaves, each having their own character.
