Dissatisfied with Magic[7]? A fan of tetrachordal scales? Try tetrachordal MODMOS of Magic[7], Magic Tetrachords!
Dissatisfied with Magic[7]? A fan of tetrachordal scales? Try tetrachordal MODMOS of Magic[7], [[Magic]] [[Tetrachord]]s!


Magic[7] has structure 3L4s, with a large step of 6/5 and a small step of 25/24~28/27~36/35. The chroma is therefore 7/6, so the diminished second is 8/9 (so like, a tone in the wrong direction. Weird hey) and the augmented seventh 9/4. From any mode of Magic[7] with 4/3 or 3/2 can be constructed a 1-MODMOS with 4/3 and 3/2.

Eg. Take 5|1. We have LsLssLs: 1/1 6/5 5/4 3/2 14/9 8/5 27/14 2/1.

From 3|3 however, both raising the major fourth to 3/2 and lowering the minor fifth to 4/3 leads us to 3|3 #4 b5, sLLdLLs: 1/1 28/27 5/4 3/2 4/3 8/5 27/14 2/1, a symmetrical scale with chromatic tetrachords of 1/1 28/27 5/4 4/3 and 1/1 16/15 9/7 2/1, inversions of each other.

From the 1-MODMOS above, 2-MODMOS can be obtained with two diminished seconds of 8/9, and one diminished fourth of 10/9, of one diatonic and one chromatic tetrachord, moving us another step closer to the Zarlino-Ptolemy diatonic scale, and from other 1-MODMOS, other, non-diatonic tetrachordal scales can be constructed, but that is outside the scope of this article, and is left as an exercise for the reader.
