{{MOS intro}}
This MOS scale, in its equalized form (L=s) produces [[6edo]], or the equal-tempered whole-tone scale, and in its collapsed form (L=1, s=0), produces [[5edo]]. In between these extremes are relatively even hexatonic scales with one "whole tone" which is smaller than the others — perhaps not a "whole tone" at all.
This scale can be seen as the equal-tempered whole-tone scale ([[6edo]]), but with one "whole tone" that is smaller than the others.


The only notable low-harmonic-entropy scale with this MOS pattern is [[Gamelismic clan #Slendric|slendric]], in which the large step is 8/7 and three of them make a 3/2.
