2L 12s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 2 large steps and 12 small steps, with a period of 1 large step and 6 small steps that repeats every 600.0 ¢, or twice every octave. 2L 12s is a grandchild scale of 2L 8s, expanding it by 4 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 514.3 ¢ to 600 ¢, or from 0 ¢ to 85.7 ¢.
