3L 12s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 3 large steps and 12 small steps, with a period of 1 large step and 4 small steps that repeats every 400.0 ¢, or 3 times every octave. 3L 12s is a grandchild scale of 3L 6s, expanding it by 6 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 320 ¢ to 400 ¢, or from 0 ¢ to 80 ¢.

It is the MOS of Inflated[15].
