'''5L 3s''' refers to the structure of [[MOS]] scales with generators ranging from 2\5 (two degrees of [[5edo]] = 480¢) to 3\8 (three degrees of [[8edo]] = 450¢). In the case of 8edo, L and s are the same size; in the case of 5edo, s becomes so small it disappears (and all that remains are the five equal L's)~~. The term '''oneirotonic''' (/oʊnaɪrəˈtɒnɪk/ ''oh-ny-rə-TON-ik'' or /ənaɪrə-/ ''ə-ny-rə-'') is often used for the octave-equivalent MOS structure 5L 3s, whose brightest mode is LLsLLsLs~~. The name ''oneirotonic'' (from Greek ''oneiros'' 'dream') was coined by [[Cryptic Ruse]] after the Dreamlands in H.P. Lovecraft's Dream Cycle mythos.

Oneirotonic is a distorted diatonic, because it has one extra small step compared to diatonic ([[5L 2s]]): for example, the Ionian diatonic mode LLsLLLs can be distorted to the Dylathian oneirotonic mode LLsLLsLs.
