-'''MOS substitution'''{{idiosyncratic}} is a procedure for obtaining a ternary (3 step sizes) scale from two [[MOS scale]]s. It consists of substituting the step pattern of one MOS (called the filling MOS), step by step, for all occurrences of a chosen step size (either L or s) of another MOS (called the template MOS). Unlike [[MV3]] scales, a MOS substitution scale may have any combination of step sizes.

The relative step sizes are chosen Unlike [[MV3]] scales, a MOS substitution scale may have any combination of step sizes.
+For example, if the template MOS is '''LXLXX''', and the filling MOS is '''mss''', then the resulting MOS substitution scales are '''LmLss''', '''LsLms''', and '''LsLsm'''.
 Under defined conditions, MOS substitution scales have the advantage of having a [[generator sequence]].
