1L 3s<3/2> (or neptunian), is a fifth-repeating MOS scale with 1 large step and 3 small steps. The name "neptunian" was given by CompactStar in analogy to "uranian" name for 3L 2s<3/2>. There is a "trivial" neptunian scale in every EDF > 4 with L/s = (n-3)/1 but these are generally unusable for larger EDFs due to becoming extremely lopsided.

Modes

  • 3|0 Lsss "tritonian"
  • 2|1 sLss "protean"
  • 1|2 ssLs "nereidian"
  • 0|3 sssL "larissan"
