== Naming mos modes ==
==Naming mos modes==
TAMNAMS uses [[UDP]] to name modes (i.e. the format pu|pd (p) for mosses with period 1/p of the equave, where u is the number of bright generators up and d is the number of bright generators down). For non-diatonic mosses, the diamond mos accidentals can be used to alter modes, and the degree modified is indicated using TAMNAMS's 0-indexing convention. For example, LsLsLLLs can be written "5L 3s 5|2 @4d".
TAMNAMS uses [[Modal UDP notation]] to name modes. For example, the names of modes for 5L 3s are the names of the mos, followed by the UDP of that mode.
{{MOS mode degrees|Scale Signature=5L 3s|MOS Prefix=mos}}
For modes with altered scale degrees, the abbreviations for the scale degrees are listed after the UDP for the mode.
{{MOS mode degrees|Scale Signature=5L 3s|MOS Prefix=mos|MODMOS Step Pattern=LsLsLLLs}}
Notation, such as [[Diamond-mos notation|diamond-mos]], can be used instead of the abbreviation of a mosdegree. For example, LsLsLLLs can be written "5L 3s 5|2 m4md". "5L 3s 5|2 @4d".


For a mos pattern given a name in TAMNAMS, there is also the option of using the prefix for the pattern instead of saying "xL ys": the 5L 3s mode LsLLsLLs can be written "onei-5|2".
