Negri forms 9-note and 10-note [[mos scale]]s, Negri[9] and Negri[10], at [[1L 8s]] and [[9L 1s]] respectively. In [[19edo]], the negri generator is the diatonic half-step of 2\19, which allows these mosses to be written fairly simply in conventional notation. For example, the ssssLssss mode of 19edo could be written as E F Gb G# A B C Db D# E. This mode is particularly useful as it has identical ssss pentachords (analogous to the [[tetrachord]]s of classical Greek music theory) on the 1/1 and 3/2. It is also notable in that a subset of these notes form the E double harmonic major scale, E F G# A B C D# E, which features in a wide variety of world musical traditions. In fact, all modes of Negri[9] and Negri[10] contain at least one mode of the double harmonic scale as a subset.

Negri[9], major mode ssssLssss, in 19edo tuning

It is also notable in Negri[9] that a subset of these notes form the E double harmonic major scale, E F G# A B C D# E, which features in a wide variety of world musical traditions. In fact, all modes of Negri[9] and Negri[10] contain at least one mode of the double harmonic scale as a subset.

Another useful mode of Negri[9] is Lssssssss, which in 19edo would be A B C Db D# E F Gb G# A. This has a minor triad (A–C–E) for a tonic chord, which can be extended to a 7-limit utonal tetrad (A–C–E–Gb), as well as 7-limit otonal tetrads on E and F that can function as, respectively, a dominant seventh chord and a German augmented sixth chord. This scale also contains the popular Hungarian minor mode of the double harmonic scale, A B C D# E F G# A.
