5L 12s, also called s-enharmonic, is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 5 large steps and 12 small steps, repeating every octave. 5L 12s is a grandchild scale of 5L 2s, expanding it by 10 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 705.9 ¢ to 720 ¢, or from 480 ¢ to 494.1 ¢. This scale is characterized by having a diesis (the difference between a large step and two small steps) that is larger than the chroma.
The supra/quasisuper version is proper, but the superpyth/ultrapyth version is improper (it does not become proper until you add 5 more notes to form the superpyth 22-note scale).
