The term "'''diatonic scale'''" is an umbrella term that not only refers to the [[5L 2s]] [[MOS scale]], but also to the group of [[muddle]]s and [[MODmuddle]]s that both resemble it and are related to it.  This page is for the cataloguing of these muddles.  For the sake of ease, "L<sub>1</sub>" refers to the larger of two large step sizes while "L<sub>2</sub>" refers to the smaller of two large step sizes, and likewise "s<sub>1</sub>" refers to the larger of two small step sizes while "s<sub>2</sub>" refers to the smaller of two small step sizes.  For muddles where there's only a single size of large step, a simple "L" will be used, and likewise, for muddles where there's only a single size of small step, a simple "s" will be used.

The '''3L<sub>1</sub> 2L<sub>2</sub> 2s''' muddle can be denoted as '''Ptolemaic diatonic scale''' or '''[[Nicetone]]''' on account of the 3L<sub>1</sub> 2L<sub>2</sub> 2s being the step-size combination of the well-known '''[[Zarlino|Ptolemaic Sequence]]'''. By default, the Ptolemaic diatonic scale has the pattern of L<sub>1</sub>L<sub>2</sub>sL<sub>1</sub>L<sub>2</sub>L<sub>1</sub>s, which was chosen as the standard arrangement for representing this particular step-size combination due to the Ptolemaic Sequence being a more evenly distributed [[MV3]] scale.  However, it is important to note that the Ptolemaic diatonic scale has an inverse, the '''Contraptolemaic diatonic scale''', that has the pattern of L<sub>2</sub>L<sub>1</sub>sL<sub>1</sub>L<sub>2</sub>L<sub>1</sub>s.

Aside from the Ptolemaic diatonic scale, the '''2L<sub>1</sub> 3L<sub>2</sub> 2s''' muddle ([[interdia]]) is the one of the more frequently encountered 5L 2s muddles.
