While the [[Hemif|Hemif[7]]] scale itself and MODMOSes related to it give the middle eastern sound well, 41 has other interesting properties that make it an ideal system for Arabic and Turkish music. It is considered a "Level 2 EDO" due to the fact that it has neutral seconds and thirds as well as submajor and supraminor ones added to a Pythagorean skeleton, with small semitones as minor seconds and major whole tones as major seconds. The submajor third is great for Turkish Rast as it is sharp enough to sound close to a [[5/4]], while the neutral third exists as half of a [[3/2]] and works well for Arabic Rast and some Persian scales. Additionally, a large [[apotome]] exists for the Hicaz maqam.
