12L 14s
12L 2s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 12 large steps and 2 small steps, with a period of 6 large steps and 1 small step that repeats every 600.0¢, or twice every octave. 12L 2s is a grandchild scale of 2L 8s, expanding it by 4 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 85.7¢ to 100¢, or from 500¢ to 514.3¢. Scales of the true MOS form, where every period is the same, are proper because there is only one small step per period.
It appears as the mega chromatic scale of injera temperament, meaning that its harmonic entropy is where +4 generators equals 5/4 (simple) or +10 generators equals 5/3 (complex).
