Suppose we have a linear temperament in the strict sense, so that the octave is the period. We then will have generator and period vals; suppose v is the val...
... Presumably the thing to do to generalize to any rank two temperament is to multiply by the number of periods to the octave. If we do that, we have both a...
Here is the same boring old list of 45 7-limit linear temperaments I keep reusing, this time sorted in terms of increasing badness, using the weighted kees...
Another idea we can try with this kees metric business is to refine the semistandard val. If v is a val, and if u has its p prime coordinate equal to the...
