5L 8s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 5 large steps and 8 small steps, repeating every octave. 5L 8s is a child scale of 5L 3s, expanding it by 5 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 461.5¢ to 480¢, or from 720¢ to 738.5¢.
5L 8s represents the chromatic scales of Semisept, A-Team and Vulture temperaments.
