[[TAMNAMS]] suggests the temperament-agnostic name '''onyx''' for this scale. The name comes from ''a lot'' of naming puns and references, namely:
| Equalized = 6
| Collapsed = 1
| Pattern = Lssssss
|Name=onyx}}


{{MOS intro}}
*The name sounds like its step counts of '''one''' large step and '''six''' small steps.
There is one notable low-harmonic-entropy scale with this [[MOS]] pattern: [[porcupine]], in which two generators make a [[6/5]] and three make a [[4/3]].
*Onyxes come in different colors and types, which is a metaphor for this scale's generator range being quite large and containing the generator ranges of other MOS scales, such as [[7L 1s]], [[8L 1s]], and [[9L 1s]].
 
==Theory ==


Other scales include very improper (incomplete) versions of [[negri]], 12edo, etc.
===Low harmonic entropy scales===
There is one notable harmonic entropy minimum: [[porcupine]], in which the generator is around 150¢ to 170¢, two generators make a [[6/5]] (315.6¢), and three make a [[4/3]] (498¢).

Mode names are from [[Porcupine Temperament Modal Harmony|Porcupine temperament modal harmony]], proposed by [[William Lynch]]. Descriptive mode names reference the page's original descriptions of the modes.
