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 father, 5-limit. I've included:

* a .space Tonespace file showing the tempering-out of
the 5-limit diatonic-semitone 16/15 = 2,3,5-monzo [4 -1, -1>;

* .tuning files of the 8-, and 5-note DES scales,
as illustrated in Erlich's horogram, and also the
21- and 13-note DES;

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