One way of distinguishing the '''diatonic''' scale is by considering it a [[MOS scale|moment of symmetry]] scale produced by a chain of "fifths" (or "fourths") with the step combiniation of '''5L 2s'''. Among the most well-known variants of this MOS proper are [[12edo]]'s diatonic scale along with both the Pythagorean diatonic scale and the various meantone systems. Other similar scales referred to by the term "diatonic" can be arrived at different ways | One way of distinguishing the '''diatonic''' scale is by considering it a [[MOS scale|moment of symmetry]] scale produced by a chain of "fifths" (or "fourths") with the step combiniation of '''5L 2s'''. Among the most well-known variants of this MOS proper are [[12edo]]'s diatonic scale along with both the Pythagorean diatonic scale and the various meantone systems. Other similar scales referred to by the term "diatonic" can be arrived at different ways – for example, through just intonation procedures, or with tetrachords. However, it should be noted that at least the majority of the other scales that fall under this category – such as the just intonation scales that use more than one size of whole tone – are actually [[muddle]]s or [[MODmuddle]]s that both closely resemble and are derived from this MOS. | ||

Because the diatonic scale is so widely used, it should be no surprise that there are a number of noteworthy scales of different sorts related to this MOS. | Because the diatonic scale is so widely used, it should be no surprise that there are a number of noteworthy scales of different sorts related to this MOS. | ||
