12-tone scales
| normal () | small variation of ptolemaic 5-limit with closer minor 7th. |
| ptolemy () | ptolemaic 12-tone (5-limit) - very similar except for kinda weird m7 |
| overtone () | ben johnston's overtone scale identical to jeff snyder's "otonal" scale |
| undertone () | subharmonic mirror of the overtone scale jeff calls this "utonal" after partch |
| lamonte () | lamonte young's 'well-tuned piano' (very eccentric) |
higher-tone scales / gamuts
| zarlino () | gioseffo zarlino's 16-tone (5-limit) |
| partch () | harry partch 43-tone (11-limit, plus some) |
| gamut () | finally, jeff snyder's full 168-tone gamut. |

small variation of ptolemaic 5-limit with closer minor 7th.
taking cue from jeff snyder and calling this "normal" since it is most commonly used.
