Hello,

As a 2 cts diff at the lower end of the temperament is the same that a
1 cts error in the top, I wonder also how is it measured.

What I wonder also is how the EDT can prove the temperament to be
right or wrong, the fundamental may be measured, I seem to recall that
the second partial was the first measurable partial with SAT or RCT .

May be I am wrong on that one, I understand also that the jury is
listening to the temperament so he can correct any obvious error of
the EDT.

What I don't get is that the temperament is better evaluated with
unisons tuned , in my opinion, because then you have the definitive
beat rates and not a partial view of the work.

Just some Euro...

Best Regards.
