18L 9s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 18 large steps and 9 small steps, with a period of 2 large steps and 1 small step that repeats every 133.3 ¢, or 9 times every octave. 18L 9s is a child scale of 9L 9s, expanding it by 9 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 44.4 ¢ to 66.7 ¢, or from 66.7 ¢ to 88.9 ¢. Scales of the true MOS form, where every period is the same, are proper because there is only one small step per period.

This MOS scale is associated with ennealimmal temperament.
