Collapsed (L:s = 1:0) 1\1 (1200.0 ¢)

1L 3s, also called tetric, is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 1 large step and 3 small steps, repeating every octave. Generators that produce this scale range from 900 ¢ to 1200 ¢, or from 0 ¢ to 300 ¢.

In South Africa, the San use a tetratonic scale which is approximately basic 1L 3s.
