3L 2s (8/5-equivalent): Difference between revisions

Line 9:

[[Basic]] 3L 2s<8/5> is in [[8ed8/5]], which is a very good minor sixth-based equal tuning similar to [[12edo]].

==Notation==

There are 2 main ways to notate ~~the diatonic~~ scale. One method uses a simple sixth repeating notation consisting of 5 naturals (La, Si, Do, Re, Mi). Given that 1-7/6-3/2 is minor sixth-equivalent to a tone cluster of 1-16/15-7/6, it may be more convenient to notate these diatonic scales as repeating at the double sixth (diminished eleventh~tenth), however it does make navigating the [[Generator|genchain]] harder. This way, 3/2 is its own pitch class, distinct from 16\15. Notating this way produces a tenth which is the Dorian mode of Annapolis[6L 4s] or Oriole[6L 4s]. Since there are exactly 10 naturals in double sixth notation, Greek numerals 1-10 may be used.
