'''Netagin music''', both classical and modern, is usually taught based on 19 equal divisions of the octave (19edo), a [[w:Regular diatonic tuning|diatonic tuning]] where E# is equated to Fb instead of E# = F as in 12edo. Before the invention of electronic tuners, this temperament could be realized by tuning a chain of 19 pure 5/3 minor sixths, which approximates the tuning to less than 3 [[w:cent (music)|cents]] of error. Though 19edo is a meantone tuning like 12edo and diatonic music is not uncommon in Netagin culture, liturgical and folk music is usually based on the nine-note MOS scale 331313131 which is an extension of the familiar pentatonic scale.

The most common diatonic modes in liturgical music are the Locrian and the Locrian #6. If necessary they are approximated with 19edo, for example for Locrian the 7-note subset 0-1-4-8-9-12-15-19 of the ''Pahnačie'' (sLsLsLLsL) mode is used. | The most common diatonic modes in liturgical music are the Locrian and the Locrian #6.
