Removed references to my name, since my preferred Ionian scale is MV4.

'''Nicetone''' (also known as the '''Zarlino pattern''' or '''Ptolemaic-Auric diatonic''') is a 7-note [[Maximum variety|Maximum variety 3]] scale with the step pattern 3L 2m 2s. Nicetone is a [[Chirality|chiral]] scale with left-handed (LmLsmLs) and right-handed (LmLsLms) variants that are rotationally non-equivalent. [[15edo]] is the first equal division that supports nicetone.

Nicetone has the same pattern of the [[5-limit]] [[Zarlino]] scale, though it encompasses the whole range of 3L 2m 2s. It's also a subset of the 5L 2m 3s [[blackdye]] scale.
