Wouldn't a scale from, say, 100 Hz to 1600 Hz sound "interesting" if
we used 100 Hz as the semitone, rather than 2^(1/12) x f? :-)
That would form the first 15 overtones of a natural harmonic series based
on a fundamental of 100 Hz, and yes, it does sound cool. If you've got a
synthesizer with either microtuning scales, or a resonant filter, you could
set that up.
Heck, took me about 3 minutes with Sound Forge. (Use the "Synthesis"
tool.) Interesting scale. Sounds like the intervals get flat going up,
to my ear. (Probably because it's untempered.)
