6L 12s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 6 large steps and 12 small steps, with a period of 1 large step and 2 small steps that repeats every 200.0¢, or 6 times every octave. 6L 12s is a child scale of 6L 6s, expanding it by 6 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 133.3¢ to 200¢, or from 0¢ to 66.7¢.
