ABACABADABACABA is the quaternary [[Fraenkel word]] ~~and~~ the (8,4,2,1) [[SNS]] pattern ~~(the rank-4 power SNS)~~. When covering a period of 2/1, such scales are known as Cantor-3 scales. ABACABADABACABA scales can be conceived of as two equivalent [[ABACABA JI scales|ABACABA scales]] and a remaining step D, akin to how ABACABA scales can be conceived of as two equivalent ABA tetrachords and a remaining step C. We will classify ABACABADABACABA scales on this page as such, grouping them by the interval subtended by ABACABA, which we will call an octochord. As [[step-nested scales]], ABACABADABACABA scales can be described of as SNS (P, P/O, O/T, A), or equivalently as SNS (P, O, T, A) etc. where P is the period, O is the interval subtended by ABACABA, the octochord, and T is the interval subtended by ABA, the tetrachord. ABACABADABACABA scales, unlike ABA and ABACABA scales, are not [[Rank-3 scale#Pairwise well-formed scales|pairwise well-formed]], and thus their mean variety is above 4. ABACABADABACABA scales have v4454654 4564544, with mean variety ~ 4.57.
