==Naming mos intervals== | ==Naming mos intervals== | ||
Mos intervals are denoted as a ''quantity'' of '''mossteps''', large or small. An interval that is ''k'' mossteps wide is referred to as a ''k-mosstep interval'' or simply ''k-mosstep'' (abbreviated as ''k''ms). A mos's intervals are a 0-mosstep or [[1/1|''unison'']], followed by a 1-mosstep, then a 2-mosstep, and so on, until an n-mosstep interval equal to the ''period'' is reached, where n is thus the number of pitches in the mos per period. If a positive integer multiple of the period equals an octave (or some close approximation thereof), that interval can be referred to plainly as an octave if one prefers, but ''mosoctave'' should not be used unless there is exactly 7 notes per octave. The prefix of mos- in the term mosstep may be replaced with the mos's prefix, specified in the section mos pattern names. | Mos intervals are denoted as a ''quantity'' of '''mossteps''', large or small.
