Ed Foote and Coleman 11

[A440A@AOL.COM]

<< Robert, comparing your numbers against Ed's, yours seem to be all 1 cent

less than Ed's except for the B.  


So as not to confuse anyone, Robert and Ed can we please clarify the

situation. >>

Greetings, 
   Jim C., as I remember it, mentioned that his original #11, being derived 
from a spreadsheet, ended up with A taking a 1 cent drop.  Something to do 
with keeping the overall tension as unchanged as possible, I think.  
   I have opined before that proposing not only a change of temperament, but 
also a change of pitch complicates the customers decision, so I strive for 
A-440 with any given temperament.  This is not to say that I have any 
customer that could tell a one cent difference in overall pitch!  
   The difference in the B is a mystery, I THINK I have Jim's numbers right, 
he did vett the info before I printed it, and I have been successfully using 
this temperament for some time. 
Regards, 
Ed Foote RPT
