6L 1s, named archaeotonic in TAMNAMS, is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 6 large steps and 1 small step, repeating every octave. Generators that produce this scale range from 171.4 ¢ to 200 ¢, or from 1000 ¢ to 1028.6 ¢. Scales of this form are always proper because there is only one small step.

Names

TAMNAMS suggests the temperament-agnostic name archaeotonic as the name of 6L 1s. The name was originally used as a name for the 6L 1s scale in 13edo.

Temperaments

There are two notable harmonic entropy minima with this MOS pattern. The first is tetracot, in which four generators make a 3/2, and the second is known as roulette7, the seven note albitonic scale for the 2.5.7.11.13 subgroup temperament roulette. (Other temperaments like didacus, luna, hemithirds, and hemiwürschmidt have very similar 7-note MOSes.)

The 6L 1s pattern also houses a temperament of the 11th and 13th harmonics, for example L=7 s=4 (46 edo) is such a scale.
