[tuning] Re: Quintet.net

If you know of any available or existing twelve-tone font set for Mac AND Windows I would consider implementing it at some point. I have already thought about notation in 72TET myself.

good to hear from you again ... it's been a long time
since i last saw you around here.

anyway, over the last two years George Secor and
Dave Keenan have developed "sagittal" notation,
with the goal of establishing a standardized
microtonal notation able to notate many different
JI and tempered tunings with the same set of
accidental symbols.

72edo (1/12-tones) is one of the featured tunings.
and the fonts for several versions are available.

have a look here:

and be sure to click the link to the sagittal website
to read the whole story.
