We can call the [[MOSScales|Moment of Symmetry]] scale derived from a 5/17 generator & an octave repeat the '''17edo Neutral Scale'''. We build it by stacking neutral thirds, the generator of the [[neutrominant]] temperament. In [[17edo]] that means the interval of five degrees of 17. | We can call the [[MOSScales|Moment of Symmetry]] scale derived from a 5/17 generator & an octave repeat the '''17edo Neutral Scale'''.

Naturally, with seven notes we have seven modes, depending on which note we make the starting pitch (tonic) of the scale. I ([[Andrew Heathwaite]]) have given these modes a one-syllable name for my own use. Feel free to name (or not name) these modes as you see fit: | Naturally, with seven notes we have seven modes, depending on which note we make the starting pitch (tonic) of the scale.
