Marketing hype

Thanks for your "new and improved" cynicism Carl.;-)

Yes, LucyTuning is a meantone tuning; yet neither 1/3 comma, nor 1/4 comma.

The values are very specific and derived from pi.

The thing which is significant (instead of references to integer
frequency ratios), is that LucyTuning at http://www.ilhawaii.net/~lucy is
developed from a new
paradigm for harmonic mapping, enabling users to transpose and modulate
forever plus emulate any other tuning system.

I've written an extensive piece for Csound in free-style just intonation. I
also wrote a chapter about alternate tuning in Csound for Richard
Boulanger's book (which should be coming out soon). I believe David Madole
also did a chapter on microtonal instruments in Csound. John Fitch's "Drums
and Different Canons #1" is a piece in 100TET, and I believe a copy of the
sco and orc is available via his home page. What is it you're looking for?
If I knew what kind of tuning you wanted, I might be able to offer
suggestions.

At the danger of seeming to push my work forward, may I suggest that
you look at the cps2pch and cpsxpch opcodes, as there are designed to
assiste with ET tunings. For JT systems it seems that describing teh
pitch as two integers whose ratio is the requirement, possibly with an
octave number is sufficient.
