First sentence: | |||
* Single-period 2/1-equivalent: '''xL ys''' (TAMNAMS name ''tamnams-name''), also called ''other-name'', is an octave-repeating moment of symmetry scale that divides the octave (2/1) into x large and y small steps. | |||
* Multi-period 2/1-equivalent: '''nxL nys''' (TAMNAMS name ''tamnams-name''), also called ''other-name'', is an octave-repeating moment of symmetry scale that divides the octave (2/1) into nx large steps and ny small steps, with n periods of c cents containing x large and y small steps each. | |||
* Single-period 3/1-equivalent: '''3/1-equivalent xL ys''', also called other-name, is a twelfth-repeating moment of symmetry scale that divides the tritave or perfect 12th (3/1, c cents) into x large and y small steps. | |||
* Multi-period 3/1-equivalent: '''3/1-equivalent nxL nys''', also called ''other-name'', is a twelfth-repeating moment of symmetry scale that divides the tritave or perfect 12th (3/1, nc cents) into nx large steps and ny small steps, with n periods of c cents containing x large and y small steps each. | |||
* Single-period 3/2-equivalent: '''3/2-equivalent xL ys''', also called other-name, is a fifth-repeating moment of symmetry scale that divides the perfect 5th (3/2, c cents) into x large and y small steps. | |||
* Multi-period 3/2-equivalent: '''3/2-equivalent nxL nys''', also called ''other-name'', is a fifth-repeating moment of symmetry scale that divides the perfect 5th (3/2, nc cents) into nx large steps and ny small steps, with n periods of c cents containing x large and y small steps each. | |||
Second sentence: | |||
* | * Generators that produce this scale range from g1 cents to g2 cents, or from d1 cents to d2 cents. | ||
* | |||
* | Octave-equivalent relational info: | ||
* Single-period | * Parents of mosses with 6-10 steps: xL ys is the parent scale of both child-soft and child-hard. | ||
* Multi-period | * Children of mosses with 6-10 steps: xL ys expands parent-scale by adding step-count-difference tones. | ||
Rothenprop: | |||
* Single-period: Scales of this form are always proper because there is only one small step. | |||
* Multi-period: Scales of this form, where every period is the same, are proper because there is only one small step per period. | |||
