Arguments

The template currently supports the following arguments:

Argument Required? Description
Scale Signature Yes (optional on mos pages) The mos's scale signature in the form "xL ys" (for 2/1-equivalent mosses), "xL ys<p/q>" or "xL ys⟨p/q⟩" (for non-2/1 mosses), or "xL ys (p/q-equivalent)" (if the tuning is specified in the page's title). If left blank and used on a mos page, then the page's title will be used.
Mode Names No (optional) A list of names delimited using semicolons. If the tuning is "5L 2s", then mode names (Lydian, Ionian, etc) are automatically added.

Typical use

For most mos pages, simply include the code below. If included on any other page, a tuning must be specified.

{{MOS modes}}

Usage with a different scale signature

To specify a scale signature, include it as shown below. Non-octave mosses are supported.

3|5 2 sLsLsLssL
2|6 4 sLsLssLsL
1|7 6 sLssLsLsL
0|8 8 ssLsLsLsL

Usage with mode names

Names for each mode are separated by semicolons, as shown below. A mode may have multiple names or a name consisting of multiple words. Mode names should be ordered by decreasing modal brightness.

{{MOS modes|Scale Signature=5L 3s|Mode Names=Dylathian, Dylian; Ilarnekian; Celephaïsian; Ultharian; Mnarian; Kadathian, Kadian; Hlanithian, Hlanian; Sarnathian, Sarnian}}

To-do

  • Some mos pages have more than one set of names. This currently is not supported.
