I'm sure you all have experienced this by happenstance with some chords, and it is in fact possible to design a temperament in which this phenomenon happens a lot. Okay then, you're ready for the Werckmeister III !!! Just take that puppy, and sit down with it and a calculator. Start dividing M3 &m3'sbeat rates that comprise the major and minor triads.
