The twin downminor scale consists of two downminor pentatonic scales, offset from each other by two frets. Likewise with the twin upmajor scale. The twin downminor's down-7 mode is (12:13:14:15:16:17:18)/12 plus (12:13:14:15:16)/8, except that prime 17 isn't well tuned.

The "mixed" scale that uses both upmajor and downminor is distributionally even, and each string has 3 or 4 notes. The two unmixed "twin" scales are less even, and one string holds only 2 notes.

In both the mixed and unmixed scales, there are only three types of each interval, except the "deca-6th" which has 4 types (~4, d5, A4 and ~5).
