4L 1s⟨5/3⟩ is a 5/3-equivalent (non-octave) moment of symmetry scale containing 4 large steps and 1 small step, repeating every interval of 5/3 (884.4¢). Generators that produce this scale range from 176.9¢ to 221.1¢, or from 663.3¢ to 707.5¢. Scales of this form are always proper because there is only one small step. The name of the period interval is called the sextave (by analogy to the tritave).

Because this diatonic is a major sixth-repeating scale, each tone has a 5/3 major sixth above it. The scale has one augmented chord, two major chords, two minor chords. This diatonic also has two dominant 7th chords, making it a warped Neapolitan minor scale.

Basic diatonic is in 9ed5/3, which is a very good major sixth-based equal tuning similar to 12edo.

Notation

There are 2 main ways to notate the diatonic scale. One method uses a simple sextave (major sixth) repeating notation consisting of 5 naturals (Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol or Sol, La, Si, Do, Re). Given that 1-5/4-3/2 is major sixth-equivalent to a tone cluster of 1-10/9-5/4, it may be more convenient to notate these diatonic scales as repeating at the double sextave (augmented eleventh~twelfth), however it does make navigating the genchain harder. This way, 3/2 is its own pitch class, distinct from 10\9. Notating this way produces a twelfth which is the Scala Francisci[8L 2s]. Since there are exactly 10 naturals in double sextave notation, Greek numerals 1-10 may be used.

Temperaments

The most basic rank-2 temperament interpretation of this diatonic is Dorianic, which has pental 4:5:6 or septimal 14:18:21 chords spelled root-(2g)-(p-1g) (p = the major sixth, g = the whole tone). The name "Dorianic" comes from the Dorian mode having the major sixth as its characteristic interval.
