Equivalent pitch classes are currently limited to pitches that fall at the exact midpoint of two other pitches, such as C# and Db being equivalent in standard notation, or C and B# being equivalent. This is to ensure note names have as few accidentals as possible.

~~Accidentals~~ smaller than a chroma, such as [[ups and downs notation|ups and downs]] ~~or half-accidentals~~, are ~~currently~~ not ~~supported~~. ~~An example of~~ such ~~usage is 5L 2s in 31edo~~, ~~where Dbb may be notated as ^C (up-C) or Ct (C half-sharp).~~

Since the intended use of this template is to show a gamut based on a generator chain, notes altered by accidentals smaller than a chroma, such as half-accidentals and [[ups and downs notation|ups and downs]], are not included. As such, if a step ratio is entered without being simplified, such as with 5L 2s in 24edo (step ratio of 4/2), the gamut produced will be for a simplified step ratio instead.

~~<pre>{{MOS gamut|Scale Signature = 5L 2s|Step Ratio = 5/3}}</pre>~~

~~{{MOS gamut|Scale Signature = 5L 2s|Step Ratio = 5/3}}~~

If a step ratio is entered without being simplified, ~~the edo (or ed{{angbr|equave|}}) displayed will reflect that by being a larger division of the equave. An example of this is~~ 5L 2s in 24edo~~, whose~~ step ratio is 4/2~~. However~~, the ~~notes in between are not shown to keep the output~~ simplified.

<pre>{{MOS gamut|Scale Signature = 5L 2s|Step Ratio = 4/2}}</pre>

This template can accept equalized step ratios~~, but collapsed~~ step ratios ~~are~~ not ~~formatted~~ properly~~. This~~ is an aesthetic issue.

This template can accept equalized and collapsed step ratios. Collapsed step ratios may not be displayed properly, but this is an aesthetic issue.
