Dear Alexander, Many thanks for your table showing the temperaments arising from the fretting of the Palmer orpharion.
Would it help if you compiled the table with the Courier font, like I do for musical examples? It is a monospaced font, so you shouldn't get variations from one computer to another. It would be easier for the eye to take in how close the instrument is to equal temperament, or otherwise, if equal temperament appeared in a column next to 1/8th comma, not next to 1/4 comma meantone which is furthest away in terms of temperament. Best wishes, Stewart McCoy. PS: Sorry. I've accidentally sent this message to the Lute Net as well. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alexander Batov" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, November 26, 2007 5:28 PM Subject: [CITTERN] Re: Palmer orpharion images > Dear all, > > I do apologise that the table appears to have been corrupted (well, it was > absolutely fine though in plain text format on my computer ...!?).
