A rank-3 dipentatonic scale with step sizes | A rank-3 dipentatonic scale with step sizes 5x ay (5-a)z has the form xYxYxYxYxY where the Y's are replaced with y and z steps arranged in the [[MOS]] pattern ay (5-a)z. The interlocking pentatonics are copies of the mos ''aL (5-a)s'' if ''y > z'' and ''(5-a)L as'' if ''z > y''. The following is a complete list of such abstract patterns, assuming octave equivalence: | ||
