Thankyou for the feed back.

So, would using 12ET notation on 19ET, 31ET, 43ET, 54ET, ect.......be "bang
on the notes"?

No, I don't think so.

Anyway, I was never a BIG notation fan.I find this purely and absolutely
unnecessecary.
Not to say that it's a bad thing-some people like the old artistic "27
different symbols to alter one note", sort of poetic licence.
Its just that it isn't me.

I mean, just use standard 12ET notation, or better still, a piano roll with
a really advanced humaniser, and let her rip.Just retune the sampler.Simple.

Why, just give me a chord pallette, some interval rules, and cents values,
and I will be satisfied.

May alter SARA to play in different overlapping temperaments and also change
temperaments via composition.

About the "wolf 5th"-it really depends on what you mean by "bad".

I may have to invent the chords, interval names, ect....

May call one after Carl Lumma (he's my friend).

CAN I HAVE YOUR PERMISSION LADYS AND GENTLEMEN TO USE YOUR GOOD NAMES AS
INTERVALS?

Mabey just 17:{InvII(1, 4, 9, 11)}?

Will be in touch.

(Shame the E-Mail dosen't allow color-that is, BTW, what I ment by not being
able to show quarter note keys in red).
