There is another important set of MV3 scales you can get by taking just one generator and iterating it to a number of scale steps that is NOT an MOS (like meantone[6]), but from initial inspection I do think that these tends of scales actually will be General MV3 scales.

It would be a good idea to clarify which of these theorems hold for only General MV3 scale words and which hold for every possible MV3 scale. FWIW I think this problem actually goes way way back to Keenan Pepper's original version of this page (which originated from some tuning-math and IRC discussions at least 10 years ago), so I'll ask him about it. Also kudos to Inthar for a lot of great work on this.

# MV3 scales which also have this generator offset property

If memory serves, these are basically all the same thing, modulo the one main quirk regarding if we want *exactly 3* or *at most 3* interval sizes (and similarly with strict MOS / DE in the product words), and with some extra quirkiness with the two scales aabcb and abacaba which are exceptions otherwise. The Zabka paper had some good stuff about all of this. This is also regarding scale words which are "almost always" MV3 (see note about "Sporadic MV3" scales above.)

== Connections to 5L 2s MODMOSes ==

Hey, Moremajorthanmajor, I think we need to go into the technical specifications as to how 1L 3m 3s with the pattern 4 3 2 3 2 3 2 relates to LsLLsAs and LLsLsAs. It looks like the latter two might also be Metathetic variants of the former, and thus, we need to take stock of the various properties of MV3 scales. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 19:54, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
