So far all common microtonal notation schemes have been diatonic-based (e.g. ups and downs for edos, [[Sagittal]], [[FJS]]). While these existing systems are useful in many contexts, they don't accommodate the logic of non-diatonic mos scales easily, requiring multiple accidentals to write these scales. | So far all common microtonal notation schemes have been diatonic-based (e.g. ups and downs for edos, [[Sagittal]], [[FJS]]).
