/2^n Scales of Interest

A /2^n scale is a JI scale with the following properties:

• All denominators of all notes in the scale are of the form /2^n
• The scale has constant structure

Impropriety is not important; many of these scales will be improper.

Pyth (2.3)

Pyth is a line in 2.3 space. It can be traversed only by stacking 4/3. It forms constant structure at the same sizes that it forms a MOS.

Zil (2.3.5.7)

Note: Zil is sometimes defined as a chiral version that contains 405/256 and 2835/2048 in place of 25/16 and 175/128 which yields the AGS (8/7, 7/6, 8/7, 7/6, 8/7, 7/6, 8/7, 189/160, 8/7, 7/6). The version discussed below uses 25/16 and 175/128 yielding the truncated AGS (8/7, 7/6, 8/7, 7/6, 8/7, 7/6, 8/7,189/160).
