'''4L 1s<5/3>''' (sometimes called '''diatonic'''), is a minor sixth-repeating MOS scale. The notation "<5/3>" means the period of the MOS is 5/3, disambiguating it from octave-repeating [[4L 1s]]. The name of the period interval is called the '''sextave''' (by analogy to the [[tritave]]).

The generator range is 171.4 to 240  cents, placing it on the diatonic major second, usually representing a major second of some type (like [[8/7]]). The bright (chroma-positive) generator is, however, its major sixth complement (685.7 to 720 cents).

There are 2 main ways to notate the diatonic scale. One method uses a simple sextave (minor sixth) repeating notation consisting of 5 naturals (Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol or Sol, La, Si, Do, Re). Given that 1-5/4-3/2 is major sixth-equivalent to a tone cluster of 1-10/9-5/4, it may be more convenient to notate these diatonic scales as repeating at the double sextave (augmented eleventh~twelfth), however it does make navigating the [[Generator|genchain]] harder. This way, 3/2 is its own pitch class, distinct from 10\9. Notating this way produces a twelfth which is the Scala Francisci[8L 2s]. Since there are exactly 10 naturals in double sextave notation, Greek numerals 1-10 may be used.
