3L 13s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 3 large steps and 13 small steps, repeating every octave. 3L 13s is a grandchild scale of 3L 7s, expanding it by 6 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 375¢ to 400¢, or from 800¢ to 825¢. This MOS, having its large steps separated by intervals of 4s, 4s and 5s; is the quasi-enharmonic scale of Magic temperament. It is also the smallest MOS which is ideal for composing melodies in Magic temperament, owing to the fact that the optimal generator range for it is the range where Magic temperament is tuned most accurately (6/19edo to 7/22edo); and is generated by a small major third no smaller than 5/16edo (375 cents).
