#As every other generator of the third-fifths [[pergen]] (P8, P5/3), which is the pergen for [[slendric]]. This is backwards compatible with a notation that has fifths.

==Oneirotonic scale==

The term '''oneirotonic''' is used for the 8-note MOS [[5L 3s]], whose brightest mode is 22122121.

The term '''oneirotonic''' is used for the 8-note MOS [[5L 3s]], whose brightest mode is 22122121. The name "oneirotonic" was coined by [[Cryptic Ruse]] after the Dreamlands in H.P. Lovecraft's Dream Cycle mythos. Oneirotonic modes are named after cities in the Dreamlands.

The names I use for the oneirotonic interval classes are borrowed from diatonic interval categories: "second", "third", "fourth", "tritone" (4-step intervals), "fifth" (5-step intervals), "sixth" (6-step intervals), "seventh" (7-step intervals) and octave. You just have to remember that there's an extra category between fourths and fifths and that fourths and fifths are dissonant. Like in archeotonic you can change the perception of an interval by approaching it from different directions, but in oneirotonic it will change what diatonic interval class you hear it as: say, as both a third and a fourth, rather than both a major and a minor third.
