12L 9s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 12 large steps and 9 small steps, with a period of 4 large steps and 3 small steps that repeats every 400.0¢, or 3 times every octave. 12L 9s is a grandchild scale of 3L 6s, expanding it by 12 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 285.7¢ to 300¢, or from 100¢ to 114.3¢.
