Equal temperament comparison...?

Hey everyone,

Just curious if there was some page out there that has information on
each equal temperament from on up to at least 88-et. I've seen
consistency levels for each temperament done in this manner, but I'm
mainly looking for its match to 5-, 7-, and 11-limit intervals, RMS
tuning error, and the like, for a wide range of temperaments.

Thanks,
Mike

Dear Dave,

thanks for these pointers. The following links on your page http://dkeenan.com/Music/EqualTemperedMusicalScales.htm are dead, unfortunately.
