1L 12s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 1 large step and 12 small steps, repeating every octave. 1L 12s is a great-grandchild scale of 1L 9s, expanding it by 3 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 1107.7¢ to 1200¢, or from 0¢ to 92.3¢.
This MOS, also called the Happy tridecatonic scale, has its first harmonic entropy minimum at 1/14edo-3/40edo, where 3:2 is +8 generators (giving Octacot). However, the absolute harmonic entropy minimum is Nautilus (3:2=-6 generators), and that is not complete until 14 tones.
