* [[Mavila-eb]] – 12-tone chromatic scale, equal-beating tuning | |||
In addition to the 7-note anti-diatonic scale described, Mavila also has a 9 note "superdiatonic" mos, the "super-Ionian" mode of which looks LLLsLLLLs. This is the basis for the [[Armodue theory]]. | === Mos tree === | ||

Mavila generates a 16 tone chromatic mos. In a certain sense, much of mavila makes sense if viewed within the lens of a 16-tone chromatic gamut, similarly to how much of meantone is thought of in the setting of a 12-tone chromatic gamut. | Mavila generates a 16-tone "chromatic" mos.

After the 16 tone chromatic scale is the 23-tone enharmonic mos, which can be thought of as an "extended mavila" analogous to the "extended meantone" 19-tone enharmonic scale. If the mavila fifth is flatter than that of 16edo (675 cents), it will instead generate an mos at 25 notes. This is similar to how if the meantone fifth is tuned sharper than 12edo, it will instead generate a 17-tone mos rather than a 19-tone one. | After the 16-tone "chromatic" scale is the 23-tone "enharmonic" mos, which can be thought of as an "extended mavila" analogous to the "extended meantone" 19-tone enharmonic scale.
