In [[aberrismic theory]], '''penslen''' (in aberrismic systematic nomenclature slen5m) is the 16-note ternary scale step pattern LmsLmsLsmLsmLsms with [[step signature]] 5L5m6s. It is the only [[diregular]] scale with this step signature. | In [[aberrismic theory]], '''penslen''' (in aberrismic systematic nomenclature slen5m) is the 16-note ternary scale step pattern LmsLmsLsmLsmLsms with [[step signature]] 5L5m6s.

Penslen is comprised of two 8-note generator arcs. Each generator is a 3-step supermajor second (L + m + s), interpreted as 8/7, and the offset can be interpreted as an [[ultrafourth]] [[48/35]] or [[11/8]]. The fifth is 9 steps and is a stack of three 8/7 generators. When you temper out [[1029/1024]], this fifth is interpreted as [[3/2]]. | Penslen is comprised of two 8-note generator arcs.
