7L 3s<perfect eleventh> (sometimes called Bolivar or Choralic) refers to a non-octave MOS scale family with a period of a perfect eleventh and which has 7 large and 3 small steps. These scales are the sister of diaquadic with the melodic spacing of diatonic scales. A pathological trait these scales exhibit is that normalization to edo collapses the range for the bright generator to the octave.

Modes

The modes contain fundamental chords with notes such that they convert a tritone substitution into a diatonic chord substitution.

  • LLLsLLsLLs 9|0 (Lydian ♮11)
  • LLsLLLsLLs 8|1 (Major, Ionian)
  • LLsLLsLLLs 7|2 (Mixolydian)
  • LLsLLsLLsL 6|3 (Mahur)
  • LsLLLsLLsL 5|4 (Dorian)
  • LsLLsLLLsL 4|5 (Minor, Aeolian)
  • LsLLsLLsLL 3|6 (Aeolian b9)
  • sLLLsLLsLL 2|7 (Phrygian)
  • sLLsLLLsLL 1|8 (Locrian)
  • sLLsLLsLLL 0|9 (Locrian b8)

Intervals

The generator (g) will fall between 480 cents (2\5 - two degrees of 5edo) and 514 cents (2\5 - two degrees of 5edo), hence a perfect fourth.

2g, then, will fall between 960 cents (4\5) and 1029 cents (6\7), the range of minor sevenths.

The "large step" will fall between 171 cents (1\7) and 240 cents (1\5), the range of major seconds.

The "small step" will fall between 0 cents and 171 cents, sometimes sounding like a submajor second, and sometimes sounding like a quartertone or smaller microtone.

Scale tree

The generator range reflects two extremes: one where L = s (3\10), and another where s = 0 (2\7). Between these extremes, there is an infinite continuum of possible generator sizes. By taking freshman sums of the two edges (adding the numerators, then adding the denominators), we can fill in this continuum with compatible ~ed8/3s, increasing in number of tones as we continue filling in the in-betweens. Thus, the smallest in-between ~ed8/3 would be (3+2)\(10+7) = 5\17 – five degrees of 17edXI:

The scale produced by stacks of 5\17 is the 12edo diatonic scale.

Other compatible ~ed8/3s include: ~37ed8/3, ~27ed8/3, ~44ed8/3, ~41ed8/3, ~24ed8/3, ~31ed8/3.

You can also build this scale by equally dividing frequency ratio 8:3 which is not a member of an edo or stacking frequency ratio 4:3 which is not a member of an equal division of it within it.

Rank-2 temperaments

The Bolivar rank-2 temperament spells its major tetrad 4:5:6:8 or 14:18:21:28root-3(2g-p)-(2g-p)-(1g) (p = 8/3, g = 2/1) and its minor tetrad 6:7:9:12 or 10:12:15:20 root-2(p-2g)-(2g-p)-(1g) (p = 8/3, g = 2/1). Basic 17ed8/3 fits both interpretations.

7-note subsets

If you stop the chain at 7 tones, you have a heptatonic scale of the form 3L 4s:

L s s L s L s

The large steps here consist of L+s of the 10-tone system, and the small step is the same as L.

Tetrachordal structure

Due to the frequency of perfect fourths and fifths in this scale, it can also be analyzed as a tetrachordal scale.
