=== Nicetone (Chiral 3L2M2s) ===
The name "[[Nicetone]]" is chosen by comparison to [[Meantone family|Meantone]], as it is a variant of the Diatonic scale that distinguishes between two types of whole tones.  It can be collapsed to form [[5L 2s|Diatonic]] (L = M), [[3L 4s|Mosh]] (M = s), and [[3L 2s|Antipentic]] (s = 0).  The seven modes of this scale can be named after the Greek-language names of the Byzantine Echoi, as to distinguish them from the modes of MV2 diatonic.
