Thanks, Paul. That makes sense now, and I'm glad to know that I at least had the level one concept pretty much "right". Of course, now I'm wondering, how did they get produced? Is there a mathematical method of finding it, or is it an iterative process of some sort. Surely, noone sat down and tried them all by hand... ;-) And, as long as I'm filling in my knowledge gaps on such things, here's a question for anybody who would care to answer: Is there some formula or procedure that one can use to determine the generating intervals for the MOS scales of various types? I'm using an article by John Chalmers in XH 7-n-8 to learn about these scales, but it only goes up to 20 tones. I've figured out what the relevant types are for 21, 22, and 23, but how do I figure out what the generators are? [Not that I need that many notes or anything, but sometimes intellectual persuits are an end in themselves.] Thanks, Steve SMTPOriginator: tuning@eartha.mills.edu From: "Bob Lee" Subject: 19 TET - where does it begin?
