For tuning sequences that begin on C, the C needs to be modified from 523.3 
to yield an A440.

For example:
1/4 comma Mean Tone put C at 526.36Hz
Werk III put C at 526.8Hz
Kirnberger III put C at 526.36Hz
Kellner put C at 525.74 Hz
Vallotti put C at 525.02 Hz
Young put C at 525.02Hz

Hope this helps
