Monsieur Mathias,
Nothing to it. I don't know exactly how accurate my tuner is and I frankly
don't care as long as it's in the ballpark. I never just go by the tuner;
there's always some degree of adjustment by ear so technically I'm never
strictly playing in any temperament. This is
I obviously failed to get Kirnberger III as a joke. That's the prob with
us non-native speakers, we sometimes just don't get it. BTW Mathias is
my given name, and I should prefer to get addressed with that name only,
on this list, or not at all.

The running gag here tends to be Jaegermeister III.
David - in a country where too many people tune Werckmeister III and
Jaegermeister is a strong alcoholic
So what?
Once you put your fingers on the strings in MT: the comma is no longer what
it is supposed to be.
The fact is that MT sounds like clowning, from chord-character overemphasis.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say. I didn't mention meantone.

I see, as opposed to ET-fretting, where, once you put your fingers on
the strings, everything is still A-ok ... ?
David
At least in ET the minor 3rds are as minor as they are supposed to be.

Mathias,
No need to get testy. Ich äffe Sie nicht. I use my tuner to get my open
strings and frets about right in Kirnberger III, then I adjust slightly
according to what sounds good to my ear. What on earth would be funny about
that?
