Question on MOS

OK... so I need to get a bit "up the curve" on this, if possible...

So, our traditional "diatonic" scale is MOS, since it has two
different basic intervals and no possibility for a third "ambiguous"
one, likewise Blackjack has two basic intervals resulting from
a "double cycle" of the generator.

But, how about the 12-tET "chromatic" scale? Is *that* MOS? It only
has *one* size interval, yes??

Any help would be *greatly* appreciated...

Thanks!

in each generic size ('second', 'third', 'fourth', etc.), yes.

nah . . . it's considered 'degenerate'.
