=== Describing moschromatic and mosenharmonic scales === | |||
This is a system for describing scales beyond the set of named TAMNAMS scales. Although this is already described by [[User:Frostburn]], this is how I would word it. | |||
Although naming scales beyond the current cap of 10 notes is antithetical to the purpose of TAMNAMS, a general description can still be made without establishing concrete names, while using names for already named scales. Any mos will have 2 child scales, collectively referred to as moschromatic. Those child scales scales will have 2 child scales of their own, or 4 grandchild scales, collectively referred to as mosenharmonic. For describing the scales of a named mos, the prefix of mos- is removed and replaced with the mos's prefix instead; for example, the child and grandchild scales for the mos 5L 3s (oneirotonic, prefix oneiro-) are oneirochromatic and oneiroenharmonic respectively. Note that the absence of a prefix will specifically describe the chromatic and enharmonic scales of 5L 2s. If talking about a specific scale, p-, m-, s-, or f- can be added based on the step ratio of the parent mos. | |||
