Paul suggested looking at the circle of fifths for these things might
be of interest, and since amity[21] has exactly three times the notes
of meantone[7], this seems like a good place to start. You can see the
funny effect a direct translation of diatonic music to amity[21] would
apparently have; it might be worth a listen.

Gene,

What about turning this on scales, n < 11?

I don't know how many lines of maple you do this with,
but if they're few you can post them here and I can
either translate to Scheme or run them in maple myself.

I can, but I'm not sure how much, if any, of that will be new.

I could send you some Maple code I've written for various things if
you have access to Maple.

Not sure how much of the stuff you do I can grok, but I do
have Maple, so send away!
