16L 3s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 16 large steps and 3 small steps, repeating every octave. 16L 3s is a great-grandchild scale of 3L 7s, expanding it by 9 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 821.1 ¢ to 825 ¢, or from 375 ¢ to 378.9 ¢.

Scale properties

This article uses TAMNAMS conventions for the names of this scale's intervals and scale degrees. The use of 1-indexed ordinal names is reserved for diatonic interval categories.
