4L 6s⟨5/1⟩ is a 5/1-equivalent (non-octave) moment of symmetry scale containing 4 large steps and 6 small steps, with a period of 2 large steps and 3 small steps that repeats every 1393.2 ¢, or twice every interval of 5/1 (2786.3 ¢). Generators that produce this scale range from 557.3 ¢ to 696.6 ¢, or from 696.6 ¢ to 835.9 ¢.

Theory

The primary temperament interpretation of this scale is as the decatonic scale of the no-twos-or-threes (5.7.11) temperament juggernaut, in which the generator is 7/5 and the half-pentave period is 11/5. This is a very good and low-badness temperament on the 5.7.11 subgroup, although it suffers from a somewhat high error because of the smeary 11/5 at 1393 cents. It can be viewed as a "juggernaut diatonic" since the basic tuning of 14ed5 is the simplest acceptable juggernaut tuning, analogous to 12edo.

Scale tree

Template: Scale tree is deprecated. Please use Template: MOS tuning spectrum instead. Details:
Use of a single Comments parameter has become unmaintainable. Existing scale trees should be migrated to the new template, where comments are entered using a step ratio p/q as a parameter: 
{{MOS tuning spectrum
| 3/2 = Example comment
| 4/3 = Another example comment
}}


The parameters tuning and depth have been replaced with Scale Signature and Depth, respectively.
