A moderately composite 5-limit Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 9/8 5/4 27/20 3/2 27/16 2/1, with steps of 9/8 10/9 27/25 10/9 9/8 32/27. Like the 1-3-5-9 hexany, this is another detemper of the basic diatonic scale, only this time the B is missing and both the F & A chords have wolf fifths. Since the wolves are quite obvious, converting diatonic music to this scale will not generally improve the sound.
