The modes of {{~~MOSPAGENAME~~}} have step patterns which are the same as the modes of the diatonic scale.

The modes of {{MOS scalesig|5L 2s <3/1>}} have step patterns which are the same as the modes of the diatonic scale.

=== As a macrodiatonic scale ===

{{~~MOSPAGENAME~~}} is a [[macrodiatonic and microdiatonic scales|macrodiatonic scale]] with the period of a [[3/1|tritave]]. This means it is a [[5L 2s|diatonic scale]], but its intervals are all stretched to the point of being unrecognizable—the diatonic fifth is now the size of a major seventh, and octaves are stretched out to tritaves. Interestingly, [[19edt]], an approximation of [[12edo]], has a tuning of this scale, meaning it contains both a diatonic scale (which approximates 12edo's diatonic scale) and a triatonic scale.
