Traditionally, there are three ''pathet'', or modes, of Pelog. ''Pelog nem'' (or ''pathet nem'') uses the tones {{dash|1, 2, 3, 5, 6|d=med}} with an emphasis on either 6–2 or 5–1 depending on the piece (technically, depending whether the piece is emulating [[Slendro]] manyuro or Slendro songo). ''Pelog barang'' uses {{dash|2, 3, 5, 6, 7|d=med}}, usually emphasizing 6+2 or 3+7. ''Pelog lima'' is a sort of "odds and ends" for uses of the {{dash|1, 2, 3, 5, 6|d=med}} scale that don't really fit into anywhere else. Definitions are somewhat fuzzy and may vary by gamelan master. The 4 tone is not often encountered, and some elaborating instruments lack the tone entirely.

The [[2L 5s|2L 5s (antidiatonic)]] scale of [[9edo]] approximates many pelog tunings in Javanese gamelan ~~in a statistically significant manner~~.<ref>[http://www.neuroscience-of-music.se/pelog_main.htm Braun, Martin. ''Gamelan Pelog Scale of Central Java''.]</ref> However, in practice pelog's intervals are slightly different throughout the scale, while 9edo supposes exactly two distinct interval sizes.
