An 11-odd-limit stellated Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 33/32 9/8 7/6 77/64 21/16 11/8 3/2 99/64 77/48 7/4 231/128 11/6 63/32 2/1, with steps of 33/32 12/11 28/27 33/32 12/11 22/21 12/11 33/32 28/27 12/11 33/32 64/63 189/176 64/63. Like the base hexany and several other combination product sets using the same prime subgroup, this is a detempered version of supra, which means it naturally forms a pentatonic shape and then starts wrapping around again with multiple smaller steps on each degree. 10 of those notes have perfect fifths above them, making it easy to create chords all around the scale and only two of the steps are too small to be melodically useful, making it highly effective for its size while still being far enough from 12edo for the different step sizes to be obvious.
