Because the generator is so close to 1\3 of an octave, and the interval left over (which represents both 128/125 and 25/24) is accordingly so small, all small magic MOSes consist of three large intervals alternating with three groups of this small interval. Specifically, there are the following MOSes, where s always represents the characteristic small interval of 128/125~25/24.

Original Wikitext content:

**Magic** is a linear temperament in which the ~380 cent generator represents 5/4, and five of those make a 3/1. This implies that the [[magic comma]] 3125/3072 is tempered out, making it a member of the [[Magic family]]. This article also assumes the default mapping for the prime 7, which tempers out 225/224 and makes two generators equivalent to 14/9. 7/4 can be reached by 12 generators in this mapping. (There is an alternative mapping for 7 known as [[Magic family#Muggles|muggles]], but there's basically no reason to use it unless you're using [[19edo]], in which case it's identical to magic anyway.)

Because the generator is so close to 1\3 of an octave, and the interval left over (which represents both 128/125 and 25/24) is accordingly so small, all small magic MOSes consist of three large intervals alternating with three groups of this small interval. Specifically, there are the following MOSes, where s always represents the characteristic small interval of 128/125~25/24.
* [[3L 4s]]: LsLsLss where L = 6/5
* [[3L 7s]]: LssLssLsss where L = 7/6
* [[3L 10s]]: LsssLsssLssss where L = 9/8
* [[3L 13s]]: LssssLssssLsssss where L is a neutral second, which can be taken to represent 12/11
