Nicepent is a 5-note scale with the [[step signature]] 2L 1M 2s. It is also [[chiral]], which means that there are two distinct variations of the scale, left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH). The name was suggested by [[User:Fitzgerald Lee|Fitzgerald Lee]] as it is the pentatonic predecessor to [[nicetone]] (3L 2M 2s). The first edo that supports it is [[10edo]].

Nicepent is a 5-note [[maximum variety| maximum variety-3]] scale with the [[step signature]] 2L 1M 2s. It is also [[chiral]], which means that there are two distinct variations of the scale, left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH). The name was suggested by [[User:Fitzgerald Lee|Fitzgerald Lee]] as it is the pentatonic predecessor to [[nicetone]] (3L 2M 2s). The first edo that supports it is [[10edo]].

Nicepent can also be tuned as a [[5-limit]] JI scale where L = [[6/5]], M = [[9/8]] and s = [[10/9]].
