The hemi-fourth interval (around 250 cents) when taken as a generator, and an octave is taken as the generator, a 9-note scale is possible:
* For the temperament, see [[Diaschismic family #Hemifourths]].
* For the MOS scale, see [[5L 4s]].

It is an [[MOSScales|MOS scale]], of [[MOSNamingScheme|type]] "unfair bug", with SEVEN triads, subminor or supermajor. Holy holes. If the generator is around 248-250 cents, we might take this as representing a MOS in [[The_Archipelago|barbados temperament]].
 
== The family ==

[[File:hemifourths.PNG|alt=hemifourths.PNG|hemifourths.PNG]]
 
So, to the right of 2/9 lie "fair" 9-note scales, and to the left lie the "unfair" ones. The easy way to think about this: if the generator is closer to 5 in the denominator, then the 5 intervals will be bigger.
