Our approach is based on [[5L 3s]]. In fact, we have an absolute pitch notation for 5L 3s edos called the [[User:Inthar/Fox-Raven notation|Fox-Raven notation]]. | Our approach is based on [[5L 3s]].

== Mapping to | == Mapping to standard keyboards == | ||
The 5L+3s scale (Oneirotonic) can be mapped to the standard keyboard effectively, although somewhat awkwardly. Consider the sequence of 730-cent intervals that it derives from: 1 6 11 3 8 (13) 5 10 2 7 12 4 9 1/1. One of these must be absent, so it might as well be the last. So, there are at most five of the full octatonic scales on different keys. Of the four mappings that keep the major pentatonic on the white keys, which ironically look like ordinary minor-pentatonics, the latter which begins on B might be the most straightforward to learn and use. | The 5L+3s scale (Oneirotonic) can be mapped to the standard keyboard effectively, although somewhat awkwardly.
