This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Terry, My understanding is no, the spinner is driven by all the partials, the value to attain is dicatated by the style, that's all. I believe also that we can ask the spinner to react only one partial, but not in the fine or coarse tune modes. Did not really use that feature, only for pitch control on other instruments (or testing a fork) it is in the "measuring" mode. You question make sence nowadays, but when one use a custom style, the whole range of partial still are on the display and active are not they ? Greetings.

Let's say in a case where you wanted a clean (beatless) 4:2 octave and you specified no other partial relationships, the spinner presumably would stop when this condition was met. Now maybe if further up the scale you had specified a 2:1 octave, then of course I should think that the spinner was based on a compromise between these two relationships. But we are only talking about two different partials for targeting the pitch of this one note. I would think that the VT, for that note, would only be considering the two partials. Of course, in better "styles", such as the wonderful one I have been using that was authored by you (THANKS!!!!!), there are at least six or eight partials that the "style" forces the VT to consider and make a compromise among those to determine the target pitch for that note. So I guess that's my question. Isn't it the "style" thingee that dictates which partials are incorporated to calculating target pitch?
