Omnitetrachordal MODMOS scales

2L+10s

This OTC scale pattern has two classes (with different tetrachordal divisions). Only a few other scales of the form 2L+ns are known to have this property.

temperaments: injera ?


Class 1

12 tones (5+2+5)

Dual of OTC 10L+2s. Probably only useful for small values of L/s.

P = 0.8849491924

Q = 3.8274237885 (4/3 = L+3.5s)

L = 100.00 to 600.00 cents (260.15 cents @ Q)

s = 0.00 to 100.00 cents (67.97 cents @ Q)

9/8 = 2s (0.00 to 200.00 cents)

4/3 = L+4s (500.00 to 600.00 cents)

MOS generator = s (0.00 to 100.00 cents)

MOS period = 1/2 octave (600.00 cents)

notable EDOs: 14, 16, 26, 38

Class 2

12 tones (4+4+4)

Only works at high values of L/s.

Q2 = 3.8274237885 (4/3 = L+3.5s)

P = 6.7698983847

Q1 = 9.7123729809 (4/3 = L+2.5s)

L = 100.00 to 600.00 cents (260.15 cents @ Q2, 345.11 cents @ P, 396.09 cents @ Q1)

s = 0.00 to 100.00 cents (67.97 cents @ Q2, 50.98 cents @ P, 40.78 cents @ Q1)

9/8 = 4s (0.00 to 400.00 cents)

4/3 = L+3s (400.00 to 600.00 cents)

MOS generator = s (0.00 to 100.00 cents)

MOS period = 1/2 octave (600.00 cents)

notable EDOs: 20, 22, 24
