Any diasem scale has a fifth (major 5-step) between 4\9 (666.67¢) and 3\5 (720¢). The fifth is: | |||
* > 4\7 if L > m + s | |||
* = 4\7 if L = m + s | |||
* < 4\7 if L < m + s | |||
(This can be seen as follows: Let s' = m + s. Then the fifth generates the mos 5L 2s', which is either diatonic, 7edo or antidiatonic depending on the above conditions.) | |||
