[CAUT] "HT for Dummies"

[Greg Granoff]

Jim,

Owen Jorgensen's vast compendium entitled "Tuning" has aural instructions
for a very large number of HTs.

This book was mentioned in the thread-I think Fred points out that some of
the beat counting instructions are a little over the top, but over all, a
very useful and interesting book and probably what you need.

Hi Don,

 

Maybe Fred, the Eds (Aren't you the same? ;-) or someone else could answer
this as well, but is there any source that lays out bearing setting for
these aurally, w/o offsets? Maybe a "HT for Dummies" booklet? Maybe I missed
it in all the many posts.

 

Thanks.

Aaron,

 

Peter performed twice last year here at IC. Both times I tuned the 1/7th
comma modified mean-tone he requested. I received the numbers from a
technician out in the mid west who's name I cannot remember. I put the
numbers in my RCT and all worked well. Peter was very appreciative.

 

F3 +4.5

F# -3.4

G +2.2

G# -3.7

A 0

A# +3.7

B -1.5

C +2.2

C# -2.9

D +.7

D# +4.4

E -.7

F4 +2.9
