Nicechrome is a 12-note scale with the step signature 3L 4M 5s. It is also chiral, which means that there are two distinct variations of the scale, left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH). The name was suggested by Fitzgerald Lee as it is the chromatic successor to nicetone (3L 2M 2s). The first edo that supports it is 22edo.
Nicechrome can also be tuned as a 5-limit JI scale where L = 27/25, M = 16/15 and s = 25/24.
