Template:MOS intervals/doc

Parameters

Parameter	Required?	Description
Scale Signature	Yes (optional on mos pages)	The mos's scale signature in the form "xL ys", or for non-octave mosses, "xL ys ", "xL ys⟨p/q⟩", or "xL ys (p/q-equivalent)". If left blank and used on a mos page, then the page's title will be used.
Interval Notation	No (optional)	The scheme for naming intervals. Options include TAMNAMS mosstep naming and ordinal naming (EG, the unison is either called the 0-mosstep or 1st).
MOS Prefix	No (optional)	The TAMNAMS prefix for the mos, if it has one. The default is "mos".

Usage

The typical use of this template is for showing a mos's interval varieties and their qualities.

Using a different scale signature

A scale signature different from the page's title can be entered as shown.

Changing the mos prefix

By default, the mos prefix is "mos". The prefix for the mos can be changed as shown below.

Changing the degree notation

By default, TAMNAMS mosstep naming is used, where the unison is the 0-mosstep. To change this to ordinal notation, where the unison is the 1st, type in "ordinal" or "ordinals" for the parameter Interval Notation as shown below. Typing in anything else will use TAMNAMS notation.
