Diasem has 18 modes, 9 modes of LH diasem and 9 modes of RH diasem. To minimize bias (e.g. towards certain tunings), this article names the modes after the [[semiquartal]] mode that the diasem mode is based on (the semiquartal modes are given in [[UDP notation]]). We also have provided diatonic-based names, which are useful in tunings where S is relatively small, such as 26edo and 31edo. | Diasem has 18 modes, 9 modes of LH diasem and 9 modes of RH diasem.

When we arrange the modes in the order given by rotating each mode by the generator (the perfect fifth) we obtain the following families of modes (">" roughly means 'brighter than'): | When we arrange the modes in the order given by rotating each mode by the generator (the perfect fifth) we obtain the following families of modes (">" roughly means 'brighter than'): | ||
