The '''3L<sub>1</sub> 2L<sub>2</sub> 2s''' muddle can be denoted as the '''Ptolemaic diatonic scale''' or as '''[[Nicetone]]''' on account of the 3L<sub>1</sub> 2L<sub>2</sub> 2s being the step-size combination of the well-known '''[[Zarlino|Ptolemaic Sequence]]'''.  By default, the Ptolemaic diatonic scale has the pattern of L<sub>1</sub>L<sub>2</sub>sL<sub>1</sub>L<sub>2</sub>L<sub>1</sub>s, which was chosen as the standard arrangement for representing this particular step-size combination due to the Ptolemaic Sequence being a more evenly distributed [[MV3]] scale.
