I am also adding information about beat rates for major 3rds and | 5ths. This information *does*, of course, vary by octave. I am currently | using the F3 to F4 octave, simply because that's the temperament octave that | I learned aurally. If most aural tuners use some other octave to set the | temperament, please let me know asap! (before I go too far in creating | charts). If an A 440 tuning fork, the octave would be A3--A4. But F3 to A4 works even better. For the beat charts on spread sheets, it seems just as easy to do C3--C5 as anything else. Such a range should satisfy all. ---ric
