AF,
Considering the spread of a fifth, it would seem to me that there would =
be opportunity for higher partials to be all over the place with the =
inharmonicity differences in wire. I.e., a plain wire and wound wire. By =
my ears, the beats of the higher partials are no where near double =
sometimes, but I haven't really got into it yet. I still don't see how =
you use that beat speed to put the wire being tuned into your tuning =
pattern. More info, please.

  The beats are twice the speed so you can make a much more accurate =
judgment as to the correctness of your interval.

    AF,
    And just exactly what would you discern from hearing the second, or =
higher coincident partials? How would you make use of the information at =
that point?

    Just curious.

      From Alan Barnyard's post: "5ths have such a slow beat that they =
are hard for most to tune accurately, as a primary interval"

      It's much easier to use 5ths by listening to the second =
intersection of partials and not the first. However you will have to =
sensitize your hearing to discern that point.
