incorrectly dated posts from yesterday

Oops... I sent several messages to the Tuning List yesterday
without realizing that my system date was wrong. I haven't
seen any responses to my posts, so I thought that perhaps
many of you who view list messages in an email program
never saw them because they were filed under the wrong date.
Here's the essential info:

Re: animated graphs comparing meantones

I've added a new webpage with animated graphs comparing
various meantone cycles. Mouse-over the links containing
the names of the cycles and you'll see that graph.

I agree with Manuel and Paul that the tuning intended
by Telemann in this paper could be anyone with a
"5th" size of approximately 698 cents, but note also
the following:

At the bottom of page 269, Telemann clearly explains in a
musical illustration the following:

1 3 1 4 4 = number of commas between pitches
C Dbb C# Db D D#

The 55-EDO "5th" size of ~698.1818182 cents is the only one
which gives exactly equal step sizes which fit Telemann's
descriptions.

And I reached the conclusion that:

"Based on what I've gotten out of the Telemann article so far, it
seems pretty clear to me that he intended a meantone cycle based
on either 55-EDO or 1/6-comma."

I've made mp3 files of two musical examples from Telemann's
article, tuned in 55-EDO, and uploaded them to the Files section.
