'''Blackdye''' is a 10-note, [[dipentatonic scale|dipentatonic]], [[generator-offset]] scale with step pattern 5L 2M 3S (SLMLSLMLSL), equivalent to the [[5L 5s]] mos with two of the small steps made larger and the other three made smaller. Unlike [[diasem]], another diatonic-based scale with comma steps, blackdye is not [[chirality|chiral]]. It can be tuned as a [[5-limit]] JI scale or a tempered version thereof, where L represents [[10/9]], M represents [[16/15]], and S represents [[81/80]]. Under this interpretation, the scale has two chains of [[3/2]] generators with an offset of [[10/9]]. Blackdye can, of course, be used in 5-limit [[equal temperament]]s that do not temper out [[81/80]], such as [[22edo]] and [[34edo]]; however, there are more exotic tunings of the scale, such as [[32edo]]'s 5:2:1 and [[37edo]]'s 6:2:1, which have [[neogothic]] thirds and [[naiadic]]s instead of 5-limit thirds and Pythagorean thirds, and [[29edo]]'s 4:3:1 and [[36edo]]'s 5:4:1, which have submajor and supraminor thirds instead of 5-limit thirds. One can even interpret diasem as a [[negative-s blackdye|9-note subset of blackdye with a negative s step]].
