Modes with a flat 5th degree sound weirder and less diatonic but this can be alleviated by treating the flat 5th degree as an 11/8: Mnarian has a 4:9:11 on the tonic, and Hlanithian and Sarnathian have | Modes with a flat 5th degree sound weirder and less diatonic but this can be alleviated by treating the flat 5th degree as an 11/8: Mnarian has a 4:9:11 on the tonic, and Hlanithian and Sarnathian have an 8:11:13 on the tonic. | ||
You can also view oneirotonic as scales made of two tetrachords each spanning a 21/16 and one trichord spanning a 7/6. This will let you build 13edo "tetrachordal" scales with a similar structure that is not one of the 8 modes, with tetrachord structures similar to 12edo ones.
