9L 4s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 9 large steps and 4 small steps, repeating every octave. 9L 4s is a child scale of 4L 5s, expanding it by 4 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 923.1 ¢ to 933.3 ¢, or from 266.7 ¢ to 276.9 ¢. It is the chromatic scale of Orwell temperament. The generator for its harmonic entropy minimum is the cube root of 8/5.
