'''3L 2s<3/2>''' (sometimes called '''uranian'''), is a fifth-repeating MOS scale. The notation "<3/2>" means the period of the MOS is 3/2, disambiguating it from octave-repeating [[3L 2s]]. | '''3L 2s<3/2>''' (sometimes called '''uranian'''), is a fifth-repeating MOS scale.

Because | Because uranian is a fifth-repeating scale, each tone has a 3/2 perfect fifth above it. The scale has three major chords and two minor chords, all voiced so that the third of the triad is an octave higher, a tenth. Uranian also has two harmonic 7th chords. | ||
[[Step ratio|Basic]] | [[Step ratio|Basic]] uranian is in [[8edf]], which is a very good fifth-based equal temperament similar to [[88cET]]. | ||
