5L 6s: Difference between revisions

This pattern has multiple significant harmonic entropy minima, but they are all improper. The only saving grace for it is that is has harmonic entropy minima where the ratio between the large and small steps is optimal for melody, and that the generator for these scales is less than 6{{c}} flat of 8/7. The saving grace of the more lopsided scales is that a syntonic fifth is three generators up from the root. The name for this MOS pattern is '''p-chro machinoid''', although the alternative name '''mothroid''' was given by {{u|CompactStar}} as part of their temperament-centric MOS naming system (TCMNAMS). It has also been named '''slentonic''' by {{u|Inthar}}, after [[slendric]] temperament.
