Mark,

If I'm not mistaken, the Verituner has a mode that will give beat rates of
various intervals, 3rds, 5ths, 6ths, 10ths, etc.  It's not a feature I've
used but maybe someone who is more familiar with it can explain it better.

>In terms of beat speeds, the 3rds and 6ths beat relatively slowly in the
middle and bass of the piano, compared to their speeds higher up the
keyboard.  4ths, 5ths, and octaves of course are slower, and 12ths are
really an octave plus a fifth -- they beat quite slowly.  Beat speeds of
course can be calculated, but no, I've never heard of a device that counts
them.
