10L 6s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 10 large steps and 6 small steps, with a period of 5 large steps and 3 small steps that repeats every 600.0 ¢, or twice every octave. 10L 6s is a child scale of 6L 4s, expanding it by 6 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 225 ¢ to 240 ¢, or from 360 ¢ to 375 ¢. This scale is notable for supporting Lemba temperament; the entire range is suitable, with a generator range of about 229 to 232 ¢ being optimal.
