Revision as of 18:00, 3 March 2025 by ArrowHead294 (talk | contribs)

5L 2s⟨8/3⟩ is a 8/3-equivalent (non-octave) moment of symmetry scale containing 5 large steps and 2 small steps, repeating every interval of 8/3 (1698.0 ¢). Generators that produce this scale range from 970.3 ¢ to 1018.8 ¢, or from 679.2 ¢ to 727.7 ¢.
