Muddles always have more than two sizes of step -- either three or four sizes. Whereas MOS scales have two varieties of interval for each interval class (eg. a "large step" and a "small step"), muddles have potentially two varieties within each variety (eg. two sizes of "small step" and two sizes of "large step"). Parent MOS scales that are close to equal (eg. [[Maximal evenness|maximally even]] scales) will produce muddles that are closer in sound to the MOS shape.
