Hi List, I am currently a student of the trade, and enjoy reading the information and debates posted on this forum!! I have a question regarding Octave Partials, and will try to keep this short I know that in a 4:2 octave, you tune the 4th partial of the lower note to the 2nd partial of the upper note as well as with a 6:3 octave, and so on. So my question is, for example when tuning an F octave what is the distinction between 4:2, and say a 6:3 octave tuning? I have searched the archives, and reviewed my potter course manual, and still a little confused! I plan on purchasing RCT in the next couple of days, for my dell axim to assist in the progress of my aural tuning. Sorry to post such a basic question, and hope no one gets to perturbed!!! Thanks in advance!! David West Roscoe , IL.
