Notice that we have two generator chains of equal length. To give this scale a generator-offset structure we can treat the large 7-step as the offset of the 10-note scale. We treat L+S as one scale step and consider the scale an interleaving of two pentatonic scales, using the notes of C-D-F-G-Bb for the even numbered notes and Cv-Ebv-Fv-Abv-Bbv for the odd ones. This gives the following ordering: C Cv D Ebv F Fv G Abv Bb Bbv C, or in step sizes, -s L+s M L+s -s L+s M L+s -s L+s. This is formally a [[blackdye]] (sL'ML's'L'ML's'L') pattern, albeit with a negative step size s' = -s! This scale has been called '''negative blackdye''' or '''negative-s blackdye'''.
