The name '''superdiatonic''' has been established by [[Armodue]] theorists, and so [[TAMNAMS]] adopts it as well. | |||

If you're looking for highly accurate scales (that is, ones that approximate JI closely), there are much better scale patterns to look at. However, if your harmonic entropy is coarse enough (that is, if 678 cents is an acceptable '3/2' to you), then [[Pelogic family#Mavila|mavila]] is an important harmonic entropy minimum here. So a general name for this MOS pattern could be "Mavila Superdiatonic" or simply 'Superdiatonic'. | If you're looking for highly accurate scales (that is, ones that approximate JI closely), there are much better scale patterns to look at.
