These all have scale >size more than 50% larger than Graham complexity. That's a good criterion, but (even with a max scale size) was it sufficient to close this list? >Will Carl stretch a point and include Kleismic[11]? I'm betting >against. Yeah, Kleismic[11] came up long ago, and I rejected it in favor of Kleismic[8]. ;) -Carl

Unforch, I haven't tracked the reasoning behind what why maps found with this technique should be canonical. Would anybody besides Gene consider them natural mappings for their fav. temperament(s)? -Carl

I can't say I see how applying a temperament to any 12-et piece would be "straightforward"? Do you do this in maple? -Carl

Then see readme.txt. I could save the archive in Unix format, but then there'll be Windows editors to become fussy. >Drat midi. When is someone going to fix it? Isn't the midi tuning >standard supposed to deal with this stuff? You could use Audio Compositor as Carl did with his temperament exercise. AC has been fixed recently. Convert the seq file to a midi file first, then use example/midi/mts. Or use a tunable softsynth with a MIDI loopback, only that will affect the timing a bit. In 133-tET there are two fifths you can use. Manuel

I was under the impression this conversion required mapping intervals to intervals. -Carl

Anyone else have >an opinion? Yahoo's case-sensitive -- "Gene". Must run on unix... Gene, you might try converting your Scala files from Windows to Unix linebreaks before opening them, using a text editor such as EditPad Lite. I think the canonical version sounds more just in some sense, though it seems slightly melodically warped. So this is done with a simple 12-to-12 mapping? Can you upload the scala file you used? -Carl
