9L 2s

Revision as of 11:20, 29 July 2024 by Ganaram inukshuk (talk | contribs) (Wording in lead section)

9L 2s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 9 large steps and 2 small steps, repeating every octave. 9L 2s is a child scale of 2L 7s, expanding it by 2 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 654.5 ¢ to 666.7 ¢, or from 533.3 ¢ to 545.5 ¢. It represents temperaments like Avila (narrow generator) and Casablanca (wide). CompactStar has suggested the names ultradiatonic and superarmotonic by analogy to 7L 2s's name of superdiatonic.

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.
