6L 6s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 6 large steps and 6 small steps, with a period of 1 large step and 1 small step that repeats every 200.0 ¢, or 6 times every octave. Generators that produce this scale range from 100 ¢ to 200 ¢, or from 0 ¢ to 100 ¢. Scales of the true MOS form, where every period is the same, are proper because there is only one small step per period.

6L 6s represents the bi-equal chromatic scale of Hexe temperament.
