== Notation ==

In musical notations that employ the [[chain-of-fifths notation|chain-of-fifths]] ~~along with seven note names~~, such as the [[ups and downs notation]], the whole tone is represented by the distances between A and B, C and D, D and E, F and G, as well as between G and A.

In musical notations that employ the [[5L 2s|diatonic]] [[chain-of-fifths notation|chain-of-fifths]], such as the [[ups and downs notation]], the whole tone is represented by the distances between A and B, between C and D, between D and E, between F and G, as well as between G and A.

The scale is structured with the following step pattern:

A to B: [[9/8|whole tone]]

* A to B: [[9/8|whole tone]]

B to C: [[256/243|limma]]

* B to C: [[256/243|limma]]

C to D: [[9/8|whole tone]]

* C to D: [[9/8|whole tone]]

D to E: [[9/8|whole tone]]

* D to E: [[9/8|whole tone]]

E to F: [[256/243|limma]]

* E to F: [[256/243|limma]]

F to G: [[9/8|whole tone]]

* F to G: [[9/8|whole tone]]

G to A: [[9/8|whole tone]]

* G to A: [[9/8|whole tone]]

This pattern highlights the placement of the whole tone intervals between ~~A and B, C and D, D and E, F and G, and G and A~~, distinguishing them from the [[256/243|limma]] that occur between the other note pairs.

This pattern highlights the placement of the whole tone intervals between the note pairs above, distinguishing them from the [[256/243|limma]] that occur between the other note pairs.
