Next in the series of Tonescape files for all of the
temperament families described in Paul Erlich's
"Middle Path" paper (published summer 2006 in
_Xenharmonikon 18_):

A zipped archive of TOP meantone, 5-limit. I've included:

* a .space Tonespace file showing the tempering-out
of the syntonic-comma 81/80 = 2,3,5-monzo [-4 4, -1>;

* .tuning files of the 5-, 7-, 12-, 19-, 31-, and
50-note DES scales, as illustrated in Erlich's
horogram, and also the 69-note DES;

* sample .tonescape Musical Piece files, illustrating
all of the modal rotations of the 5-note (2L+3s),
7-note (5L+2s), and 12-note (7L+5s) DES meantone scales.

You have to be a member of the tuning-files group
to access the file. I used Windows XP's 7-zip program
to zip the archive, but hopefully any unzipper will
work.
