File:1-2 MOS Construction.png|An interval is chosen to be a generator (the 700 cent perfect fifth in this example). This is the 1L 2s MOS pattern.

File:1-3 MOS Construction.png|Stacking the generator upon itself yields a scale with 2 step sizes This is the 2L 1s MOS pattern.

File:1-3 MOS Construction.png|Stacking the generator upon itself yields a scale with 2 step sizes. This is the 2L 1s MOS pattern.

File:1-4 MOS Construction.png|Stacking the generator 2 times yields a scale with 3 step sizes (not MOS).

File:1-5 MOS Construction.png|Stacking the generator 3 times yields a scale with 2 step sizes. This is the 2L 3s MOS pattern.
