7L 5s represents the chromatic scale of [[meantone]], or meantone chromatic scale. Such scales are characterized by having a small step ([[diatonic semitone]]) that is larger than the [[chroma]] ([[chromatic semitone]]), the reverse of [[5L 7s]].

'''7L 5s''' is the MOS pattern of the [[meantone]] chromatic scale, which is the only notable harmonic entropy minimum in this range of possible scales. In meantone, "diatonic" semitones (~16/15), such as appear in the [[5L 2s|diatonic scale]], for example B-C, are larger than "chromatic" semitones (~25/24), the intervals by which flats and sharps alter pitches.
=== Modes ===
{{MOS mode degrees}}


The meantone chromatic scale with generator between 5\12 (500 cents) and 8\19 (505.263 cents) is [[Rothenberg propriety|proper]].
=== Proposed names ===
Both [[User:Eliora|Eliora]] and [[User:Ganaram inukshuk|Ganaram]] have independently proposed mode names based on names of the months. The former scheme uses mode names from the Gregorian calendar using cyclic order, starting with January assigned to the step pattern LsLsLsLLsLsL due to positioning of 31-day and 30-day months, with successive rotations assigned to successive months. The latter scheme is based on month names from the Roman calendar, starting with Mensis Martius as the brightest mode, with successive month names for each mode by descending brightness.
