---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment List, I look forward to trying many of the HTs. I have them sitting in my ETD, awaiting a proper time to come out and grace an instrument. The biggest issue I see is where does one hear them all to decide which one/ones are appropriate for the situation? Seeing the offsets written down, or a graph showing the offsets are interesting intellectual exercises, but how can we actually listen to them and compare without risking the wrath of a non-adventurous client or staid store owner by HT-ing their pianos? And can anybody satisfy my historical curiosity: is there any data out there about how HZ were measured before Heinrich HZ came along? How were standard pitches set in rennaisance music?
