I wish I could really be of help here Wim, but I think perhaps I'd like
Bills Bremmers comments here as well as Eds and Ron Kovals. But it seems
to me from the little experience I've had that knowing how to do these
by ear may help assure the machine tuning comes out right on each
instrument. I have also heard several times that HT's dont require
nearly the same amount of stretch as ET. My own hunch is that HT's
actually require quite a bit less stretch... as in not much at all.
Havent a clue yet as to why because on the surface of it its easy to
think that the octave relationships would be more or less the same. But
perhaps not.

In anycase... I have started working up an aural routine for Ellis' #4
BB so'st to compare it with what I get from Tunelab 97 and RCt.

Cheers
