Has anyone else ever made a 12ths spanner and aurally tuned a P12th temperament with it? I could only hear the 6:2 twelfth, and find a sweet stop, in the bass. For the rest of the piano I tuned 3:1 twelfths because that was all that could be heard. And I have no idea what the three note intervals with cancelling beats may sound like. When I tried it, I ended up with nearly pure fourths and fifths, and finally tuned a slightly wide temperament using my usual sequence, that resulted in P12ths. When I really think about it, how could equal beating intervals guarantee ET? -- Regards, Jeff Deutschle Please address replies to the List. Do not E-mail me privately. Thank You.
