16L 5s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 16 large steps and 5 small steps, repeating every octave. 16L 5s is a great-grandchild scale of 5L 1s, expanding it by 15 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 971.4 ¢ to 975 ¢, or from 225 ¢ to 228.6 ¢.
