Original Wikitext content:
A scale is **distributionally even (DE)** if it has [[maximum variety]] 2; that is, each class of interval ("seconds", "thirds", and so on) contains **no more than** two specific intervals.
In practice, such scales are often referred to as "[[MOSScales|MOS]]" scales, but some consider this usage to be technically incorrect because a MOS as defined by [[Erv Wilson]] was to have **exactly** two specific intervals for each class other than multiples of the octave. When Wilson discovered MOS scales and found numerous examples, DE scales with period a fraction of an octave such as [[pajara]], [[Augmented family|augmented]], [[diminished]], etc. were not among them.Original HTML content:
