Being a moment-of-symmetry scale, every [[interval class]] of 4L 3s, except for the unison and octave, has two [[Interval variety|varieties]] – large and small – whose [[Interval quality|relative qualities]] are denoted as major or minor, or augmented, perfect, and diminished for the generators. | Being a moment-of-symmetry scale, every [[interval class]] of 4L 3s, except for the unison and octave, has two [[Interval variety|varieties]] – large and small – whose [[Interval quality|relative qualities]] are denoted as major or minor, or augmented, perfect, and diminished for the generators. | ||

Other temperaments, such as [[amity]] and [[myna]], require more than 7 pitches to contain the concordant chords optimized by these temperaments. If restricted to a rank-2 approach, a [[MODMOS]] or a larger MOS gamut is necessary to access these pitches. | Other temperaments, such as [[amity]] and [[myna]], require more than 7 pitches to contain the concordant chords optimized by these temperaments.

The basic tuning for 4L 3s has a large and small step size of 2 and 1 respectively, which is supported by 11edo. Other small edos include 15edo and 18edo.{{MOS degrees|Scale Signature=4L 3s|Step Ratio=2/1; 3/1; 3/2}} | The basic tuning for 4L 3s has a large and small step size of 2 and 1 respectively, which is supported by 11edo.
