<< Dear Bill,
 
 Would you mind writing out a way to tune the Equal Beating Victorian
 Temperament?  Aural checks would be nice, but since I use the SATII a lot,
 instructions on how to modify SAT tunings to get a Equal Beating Victorian
 temperament would be nice also.
 
 Also, would you mind writing out the instructions to tune your 1/7 comma
 modified meantone temperament?
 
 Thanks!

I have been planning to publish this information for some time but have not
been able to spare the time necessary.  I will be in Montreal next week, then
there is only a week with a holiday on Saturday between then and going to the
Convention.  I'd like to get this information out but it requires a lot of
very detailed writing for which I do not want any errors or ommissions.  I
hope the Journal will want to publish it too.  I'll try to get at it after the
Convention.

There are no short cuts to involving the HT's in your practice.  In fact, it
will mean that you'll have to spend more time, learn new ETD programming
skills and learn to be versitile with your listening skills.  It is much like
learning a foreign language.  You can be quite content with the first
langauage you learned, English, and say to yourself that you have no reason to
learn another.  The second language will take a long time to learn and you
will be awkward with it for a long time.  But once that second one is learned
well, the rest come easily.
