Melodically, sensi[8] sounds fairly familiar because many intervals are either 5-limit or have familiar categorical interpretations, being represented in the meantone tuning [[19edo]]. For example, the small step of about 130 cents categorizes pretty well as a large semitone (except at places in the scale where two of them make a flat subminor third); the large step is a small whole tone representing 10/9.

The root-mos5th-mos8th chords usually spell 5:7:9 and 7:10:13 chords (shown in the Anti-Dylathian mode QJKLMNOPQ = ssLssLsL):
* Q M P = ssLs sLs L = 5:7:9
* J N Q = sLss LsL s = the odd one out
* K O J = LssL sLs s = 7:10:13
* L P K = ssLs Lss L = 5:7:9
* M Q L = sLsL ssL s = 7:10:13
* N J M = LsLs sLs s = 7:10:13
* O K N = sLss Lss L = 5:7:9
* P L O = LssL ssL s = 7:10:13
