Scales

This article or section contains multiple idiosyncratic terms. Such terms are used by only a few people and are not regularly used within the community.

Terms: Most of these names were coined, and are solely used, by Budjarn Lambeth - however he was only the first to name many of these scales, others have probably already used them before him
