|
| Names for this scale's intervals (mossteps) and scale degrees (mosdegrees) are based on the number of large and small steps from the root, starting at 0 (0-mosstep and 0-mosdegree) for the unison, per TAMNAMS. Ordinal names, such as mos-1st for the unison, are discouraged for non-diatonic MOS scales.

| == Theory == | | ==== Proposed mode names ==== |
| In contrast to oneirotonic ([[5L 3s]]), which often require the usage of completely new chords to have consonant-sounding music, some checkertonic scales contain approximations to a perfect fifth ([[3/2]], usually as a dim. chk6th or maj. chk5th), and thus can be used for traditional root-3rd-P5 harmony.
| | The modes of checkertonic can be named after its sister mos [[5L 3s]] (oneirotonic). {{u|R-4981}} has also proposed names based on {{w|grand chess}} pieces. |
