~~'''Quasi-diatonic MOS notation''' (QDMN) is a [[EDO vs ET~~#~~Temperament-agnostic EDO paradigms|JI-agnostic]] microtonal notation system for~~ [[~~MOS scale]]s developed by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]]. It is optimized specifically for backwards~~-~~compatibility with existing [[5L 2s|~~diatonic~~]] (5L 2s) notation. For diatnoic, it is identical to standard~~ notation.

~~== Note and interval names ==~~

~~The note name ABC... are used as the naturals for every MOS and repeat at the MOS's [[equave]~~]~~. A4 is fixed to 440 Hz, and the scale of naturals starting on B is fixed to the MOS's darkest mode.The accidentals #/b are set to raise and lower by the [[chroma]] (L-s).~~

A [[generic interval]] spanning k steps is referred to as a (k+1)th. In order to specify an interval, the qualities ''diminished'', ''minor'', ''perfect'', ''major'' and ''augmented'' are used. For the larger of the two generators (like the perfect fifth in diatonic), the large size of its generic interval is perfect and the small size of its generic interval is diminished. For the smaller of the two generators (like the perfect fourth in diatonic), the large size of its generic interval is augmented and the small size of its generic interval is perfect. For any other generic intervals, the large size is major and the small size is minor. Since a term like "minor 3rd" are ambiguous depending on MOS, prefixes from [[TAMNAMS]] can optionally be used to disambiguate, such as "minor oneiro3rd" for the small interval spanning 2 steps in [[5L 3s]].

~~== Staves ==~~

The MOS scale used should be given at the top in any sheet music for clarity. The staff has round(n/2+1) lines for an n-note scale. The naturals represent the lines and spaces of the staff with no accidentals. The clefs are the same as in diatonic ( G-clef, C-clef, and F-clef) and work identically, just with G, C, and F being the notes in the respective MOS instead. For the rare case of [[1L 1s]], the note C does not exist and a nonstandard clef such as [[User:VectorGraphics|VectorGraphics]]' [https://en.xen.wiki/w/File:Clefs_better_resolution.png A clef] ~~can be used.~~
