'''Quasi-diatonic MOS notation''' is a [[JI-agnostic]] [[notation]] system for [[MOS scale]]s developed by {{u|CompactStar}} and {{u|VectorGraphics}}, which is designed as a natural extension of diatonic notation, instead of special-casing it as [[diamond-mos notation]] does. Alhough this specific notation was developed by them, several existing notations have similar concepts of extending diatonic notation logic to other MOSes, [[Mike Battaglia's KISS notation|KISS notation]], the melodic notations for antidiatonic, and the A–J notation for [[Bohlen–Pierce]], the latter two of which were Vector's main inspiration. In [[diatonic]], QDMN is identical to standard notation. | '''Quasi-diatonic MOS notation''' is a [[JI-agnostic]] [[notation]] system for [[MOS scale]]s developed by {{u|CompactStar}} and {{u|VectorGraphics}}, which is designed as a natural extension of diatonic notation, instead of special-casing it as [[diamond-mos notation]] does.

CompactStar considers it useful for diatonic-like scales, such as macro/microdiatonic scales, "long" diatonic scales (such as {{mos scalesig|8L 3s<3/1>}}), and [[antidiatonic]]. | CompactStar considers it useful for diatonic-like scales, such as macro/microdiatonic scales, "long" diatonic scales (such as {{mos scalesig|8L 3s<3/1>|link=1}}), and [[antidiatonic]]. | ||
There were originally two versions, the original version by CompactStar and Vector's version, but they were nearly identical so they were simply merged into one. Credit to {{u|CompactStar}} for the system for choosing the default mode, and for the specification of the MOS name at the top of the sheet music. | There were originally two versions, the original version by CompactStar and Vector's version, but they were nearly identical so they were simply merged into one.
