When used in an "ana" way, the kata modes are radically different in character than the brighter modes. Because the fifth and seventh scale degrees become the more consonant minor tritone and the minor sixth respectively, the flat tritone sounds more like a stable scale function. Hlanithian, in particular, is a lot like a more stable version of the Locrian mode in diatonic. | When used in an "ana" way, the kata modes are radically different in character than the brighter modes.

The most important oneirotonic MODMOS is LSLLLSLS | The most important oneirotonic [[MODMOS]] (MOS with one or more alterations) is LSLLLSLS together with its rotations, because it allows one to evoke certain ana or kata diatonic modes where three whole steps in a row are important (Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian or Mixo) in an octatonic context. The MOS would not always be able to do this because it has at most two consecutive large steps. As with the MOS, this MODMOS has four ana and four kata rotations: | ||
