Erose–McClain double modes are [[warped diatonic]] scales, containing strings of 6 diatonic steps, but every 7th step is slightly shortened.
Erose–McClain double modes are [[warped diatonic]] scales, containing strings of 6 diatonic steps, but every 7th step is slightly shortened.


Double modes are [[ternary]] scales, because they posess exactly 3 step sizes. Double Lydian and double Ionian are 5L 1M 1s, the other five are 4L 1M 2s.

More double modes could be constructed by using a [[modmos]] of the 5L 2s diatonic scale in 31edo.

For example, melodic minor, harmonic minor, harmonic major, or any of their modes (rotations) could be used.
