The 5-note [[MOS]] of slendric is [[1L 4s|Lssss]], in which L | The 5-note [[MOS]] of slendric is [[1L 4s|Lssss]], in which L represents [[7/6]] and s [[8/7]]; this serves as an approximation to [[5edo]]. This expands to the 6-note MOS, [[5L 1s|LLLLLs]], in which L represents 8/7 and s is the characteristic small interval of slendric (sometimes known as the [[quark]]) representing both [[64/63]] and [[49/48]]. | ||
Both of these scales are somewhat lacking in harmonic resources relative to similar-sized scales of other temperaments. Even within the 2.3.7 subgroup, [[Superpyth|archy]] and [[Semaphore]] have pentatonic scales with more consonant intervals and chords; or if more accuracy is desired a 2.3.7 [[JI]] scale could be used. | Both of these scales are somewhat lacking in harmonic resources relative to similar-sized scales of other temperaments.
