2L 5s: Difference between revisions

Line 4:

Antidiatonic is similar to diatonic except interval classes are flipped. For example, there are natural, harmonic, and melodic major scales instead of minor scales, and its locrian scale, called "antilocrian", has an augmented fifth instead of a diminished fifth. The flatter the fifth, the less this scale resembles diatonic.

~~Among the~~ most well-known of this scale are produced by [[mavila temperament]], with fifths sharp enough to resemble diatonic. Other temperaments that produce this scale include score, casablanca, and triton, whose fifths are so flat that they cannot be interpreted as a diatonic 5th, flattened or otherwise.

The most well-known forms of this scale are produced by [[mavila temperament]], with fifths sharp enough to resemble diatonic. Other temperaments that produce this scale include score, casablanca, and triton, whose fifths are so flat that they cannot be interpreted as a diatonic 5th, flattened or otherwise.

==Name==

[[TAMNAMS]] suggests the temperament-agnostic name '''antidiatonic''' for this scale, adopted from the common use of the term to refer to diatonic ([[5L 2s]]) but with the large and small steps switched.
