'''Quasi-diatonic MOS notation''' (QDMN) is a [[EDO vs ET#Temperament-agnostic EDO paradigms|JI-agnostic]] microtonal notation system for [[MOS scale]]s developed by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]]. It is optimized specifically for backwards-compatibility with existing [[5L 2s|diatonic]] notation. For [[5L 2s]] it is identical to standard notation, and for [[2L 5s]] it is identical to the melodic (also known as "major wider than minor") notation. | '''Quasi-diatonic MOS notation''' (QDMN) is a [[EDO vs ET#Temperament-agnostic EDO paradigms|JI-agnostic]] microtonal notation system for [[MOS scale]]s developed by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]].

The note name ABC. are used as the naturals for every MOS and repeat at the MOS's [[equave]]. A4 is fixed to 440 Hz, and the scale of naturals starting on B is fixed to the MOS's darkest mode (alternative definitions for these should be explicitly stated). | The note name ABC. are used as the naturals for every MOS and repeat at the MOS's [[equave]].

The accidentals #/b are set to raise and lower by the [[chroma]] (L-s). | ||
