There is only one significant [[harmonic entropy]] minimum with this MOS pattern: [[limmic temperaments#5-limit_.28blackwood.29|blackwood]], in which intervals of the prime numbers [[3/1|3]] and [[7/1|7]] are all represented using steps of [[5edo|5edo]], and the generator reaches intervals of [[5/1|5]], such as [[6/5]], [[5/4]], and [[7/5]].

In addition to the true MOS form (LsLsLsLsLs and sLsLsLsLsL), there are 6 near-MOS forms, which are also single-alteration [[MODMOS]]ses – LLssLsLsLs, LLssLLssLs, LLsLssLsLs, LLsLssLLss, LLsLsLssLs, LLsLsLsLss – in which the period and its multiples (intervals of 2, 4, 6, and 8 mossteps) have more than two varieties. These forms are proper if the bright generator is less than 160¢.

These forms are proper if the bright generator is less than 160{{c}}.
