Non octal tunings

Hi there!

I am composing for a public performance using :

62.5 CET (cents equal temperament?)
87.5 CET
112.5 CET
137.5 CET
162.5 CET
212.5 CET
237.5 CET
287.5 CET

which are basically all the subsets equal tunings contained in the 96 equal temperament which do not include octaves (plus of course the sub-subsets of these subsets)

I wonder if people on this list have worked with these tunings before and what have they done.

My bells are already tuned and half of them coated with oil.

Hi there!

Hooray for bellophone!

I point out, before others do, the proximity of 87.5-cet to 88-cet
(8th root of 3/2 ish). I have heard music by X.J. Scott in 88-cet, and
Gary Morrison has some that I haven't heard. I composed a mode but no
music in it. The mode goes (in 88-cent steps):

2 1 2 1 1 2 1 2 1 2 1

with total compas of a M9th.

I notice also, that 162.5 cents is close to the Porcupine generator,
if you're a linear temperament kinda guy.

I notice also that I've tried in the past 137.829-cet. But again, no
musical results.

Have you looked at the spectra of your bells?

Fervently,
Jacob
