Arcturus hendecatonic notation is a nonoctave notation system for EDTs and no-twos music, developed by CompactStar. It is based on the 2L 9s⟨3/1⟩ MOS scale generated by approximately 5/3, relating it to Arcturus temperament. The preferred generator for a given EDT is the patent val 5/3.

The 9|1 mode of 2L 9s⟨3/1⟩ is represented by 11 naturals CDEFGHJKLAB, and #/b accidentals are used to raise and lower by a chroma (L - s). For relative notation, the TAMNAMS convention of zero-based indices is used. Assuming Arcturus temperament where 7/3 is mapped to the major 8-step, the chord 3:5:7 is notated as C - H - L (P0 - P5 - M8). To notate larger EDTs, Arcturus hendecatonic notation can be combined with ups and downs notation, with ^/v accidentals raising and lowering by 1 EDTstep.
