Here we see a bunch of chords. They come in pairs
of equal but opposite deviations from JI (thanks to
Graham). We can see that max, mad, and rms error
give one ranking, and tenney-weighted/ATE gives
another. They're similar, but if these chords were
synthesized and randomly named, perhaps we could have
a listen and try ranking them by discordance and
see if one predicted ranking is better than another,
if either are any good, and if in fact there's any
agreement between us at all.

Has anyone had a look at this?

Hi Carl,

I tried, but couldn't find it. Does it still exist?

Yahya

Hi Carl,
Still can't make it work ... maybe I'm running
out of temp file space; I'll check that; but
meanwhile, would you mind emailing me a copy
of the spreadsheet directly?

Yahya
