6L 10s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 6 large steps and 10 small steps, with a period of 3 large steps and 5 small steps that repeats every 600.0 ¢, or twice every octave. 6L 10s is a child scale of 6L 4s, expanding it by 6 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 375 ¢ to 400 ¢, or from 200 ¢ to 225 ¢.

Being a small major third scale with a half octave period, this makes it the same scale as Magic/Würschmidt[16] enforcing the half octaves as diatonic notes to the scale. With a half octave period, the generator inverts to 1/6edo (200) to 3/16edo (225 ¢).

Scale properties

This article uses TAMNAMS conventions for the names of this scale's intervals and scale degrees. The use of 1-indexed ordinal names is reserved for diatonic interval categories.
