6ado (arithmetic division of the octave), or 6odo (otonal division of the octave), divides the octave into six parts of 1/6 each. As a scale it may be known as mode 6 of the harmonic series or the Over-6 scale. It is an effective scale that contains several useful intervals such as 7/6, 4/3 and 3/2 although it lacks a major third.

#	Cents	Ratio	Decimal	Interval name
0	0	1/1	1.000	perfect unison
1	266.9	7/6	1.1667	subminor third
2	498.0	4/3	1.3333	just perfect fourth
3	702.0	3/2	1.5000	just perfect fifth
4	884.5	5/3	1.6667	just minor sixth
5	1049.4	11/6	1.8333	undecimal neutral seventh
6	1200.0	2/1	2.0000	perfect octave
