a generated collection for which a single generic interval corresponds to the single generator or interval cycle used is a mos (for "moment of symmetry") or well formed generated collection. for example, the diatonic collection is well formed, for the perfect fifth (the generic interval 4) corresponds to the generator 7. though not all fifths in the diatonic collection are perfect (b-f is a diminished fifth, tritone, or 6), a well formed generated collection has only one specific interval between scale members (in this case 6)—which corresponds to the generic interval (4, a fifth) but to not the generator (7) and this one differing interval is always the generator (7) plus or minus one (7 − 1 = 6) if the total number of specific intervals (12) and the generic interval's corresponding specific interval (7) are coprime (12 and 7 are). the major and minor pentatonic scales are also well formed.
