In a broader sense, a scale created by repeating one simple intonation ("fifth" analogue) and it has a low otonal limit triad (with "third" analogue which is but not always genspan +4.) But, if 3/2 is used as generator, such as [[angel]] and {{mos scalesig|8L 3s<3/1>|link=1}}, another name should be considered. The terms longdiatonic and shortdiatonic have been proposed to refer to the latter, most likely by [[User:Dummy index|Dummy index]]. | In a broader sense, a scale created by repeating one simple intonation ("fifth" analogue) and it has a low otonal limit triad (with "third" analogue which is but not always genspan +4.)

The same idea as macrodiatonc/microdiatonic scales can of course be applied to MOS scales other than 5L 2s. | The same idea as macrodiatonc/microdiatonic scales can of course be applied to MOS scales other than 5L 2s, for example 5L 4s<3/1> could be considered a macro-semiquartal scale. | ||
