8L 6s
8L 6s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 8 large steps and 6 small steps, with a period of 4 large steps and 3 small steps that repeats every 600.0 ¢, or twice every octave. 8L 6s is a child scale of 6L 2s, expanding it by 6 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 428.6 ¢ to 450 ¢, or from 150 ¢ to 171.4 ¢.
