6-6 hexatonic scales are composed of 2 equally divided tritones , filled by 3 intervals as "ABC".
Above scale is composed of 2 equal segments as 111621-111621.Numbers indicate size of
divisions in 96-EDO:

A=11*12.5=137.5 cent B=16*12.5=200 cent C=21*12.5=262.5 cent

Some well-known examples of 6-6 hexatonic scales are: Whole tone scale as the first mode of
limited transposition , fifth mode of limited transposition.

 Cyrus the great : Against portrayal of Persians in 300 (film) , I composed a

Music in a mode of baran scale (Bold degrees : 0 80 166.7 260 360 466.7 580 700 780 870 970

1080 1200 ) and in honour of Cyrus the great , the greatest and famous Persian Emperor of

the Achamenid Dynasty (580-529BC) and a righteous human being.He was extraordinarily

peerless in all over the world. Comparing Cyrus' manner with Semi's rulers, one feels great

pleasure for the Persian liberality and generosity and truly regards the Persians as one of the

instructors of human rights.

degrees and is dedicated to jlsmith ( His ZeBOX page) for his freidship and kindness to me.and

many thanks to Margo schulter for her guidance to modal music of medieval era.she has an

excellent article about relation between modal dastgah music of iran and medieval modes

here.(Although she belives it needs being revised)

 Polymicro-2 : I used "Yine bir Gulnihal aldi bu gonlumu" by Hammamizade İsmail

Dede Efendi , a composer of Turkish classical music , to retune and make a polymicrotonal
piece in a well-temperament based on 128-ADO and a mode of 17-EDO (Stared degrees):

 Polymicro-1 : This microtonal piece is composed in baran scale and its 24-EDO
version.For baran scale click here.

 For John chalmers :This piece is composed in honour of Dr.john chalmers

( and another link in Sonic-arts), for his efforts mainly in science of tuning and as a gift for new

year.It is not a long time , being acquainted with this guru , but i found a good teacher and better

to say , a good freind. This piece is composed Basically in 5-AID(4/3) with a1=66.406 cent .so,by

considering 2 equal intervals with size of (4/3)^(1/2) , Finally we can see this 5-tone structure:

0.00000
66.40600
149.41350
249.02250
365.23300
4/3

Then adding a1 to 4/3 , inserting a new interval as 3/2 and extending to 12 note per ocatve lead

us to this 12-tone scale with two equal tetrachords:

0: 1/1 0.000
1: 66.406 cents 66.406
2: 149.414 cents 149.414
3: 249.023 cents 249.023
4: 365.233 cents 365.233
5: 4/3 498.045
6: 564.451 cents 564.451
 7: 3/2 701.955
8: 768.361 cents 768.361
9: 851.369 cents 851.369
10: 950.978 cents 950.978
11: 1067.188 cents 1067.188
12: 2/1 1200.000

This music is composed in a mode with this degrees : 0 2 3 5 7 9 10 12 . We have 3 point of

nonconformity between two tetrachords.

 Music based on jupiter scale proposed by Elsie hamilton

In Naked light , web site of Brian lee which has some articles about Elsie hamilton , we can see
one of hamilton's musics named "Steig hinauf zu höhern Kreise" , for soprano and alto lyre ,
in Jupiter scale which has this scale :E F# G A# B C D E in 18-EDL:
0: 1/1 0.000
1: 9/8 203.910
2: 6/5 315.641
3: 18/13 563.382
4: 3/2 701.955
5: 18/11 852.592
6: 9/5 1017.596
7: 2/1 1200.000
with divisions based on18:16:15:13:12:11:10:9
I used 22-EDL to start scale from C but the Melodic trend starts from E:
0: 1/1 0.000
1: 11/10 165.004
2: 11/9 347.408
3: 11/8 551.318
4: 22/15 663.049
5: 22/13 910.790
6: 11/6 1049.363
7: 2/1 1200.000
with divisions based on 22:20:18:16:15:13:12:11
in this serie we have 22:20:18 which is the same as 11:10:9.The overlap of this 2
scale is interesting , as if 18-EDL is a mode based on 22-EDL:
22:20:18:16:15:13:12:11
18:16:15:13:12:11:10:9
