Gallery of 3-SN scales

Commas tempered out are shown in their simplest basis set, as per SN labeling conventions.

Tempered scales are shown in JI as their simplest symmetric pre-image.

Scales are grouped by their germinations, the sequence of introduction of generators until 3 are reached, at which point the primitive 3-SN scale is developed (the first listed under each germination), from which all others of that germination evolve. The germination of Pythagorean, Meantone, Superpyth, Mavila, and Father MOS (2-SN) scales is (2/1, 3/2).
