4L 20s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 4 large steps and 20 small steps, with a period of 1 large step and 5 small steps that repeats every 300.0¢, or 4 times every octave. 4L 20s is related to 4L 4s, expanding it by 16 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 250¢ to 300¢, or from 0¢ to 50¢.
