Beethoven's Drei Equali Andante and the basis for De Velde Just Intonation
are done.
Visit the link for many audio renderings, scores, transcriptions, etc.
You'll also find a very thorough comparison against 12tet, LucyTuning, and
Classic 5-limit JI by Petr Parizek.

Marcel,

All of this would likely garner more positive attention if you would simply
tell us what you're doing. So far, all I've seen is you talking about how
you have "solved JI" and "made music perfect" and how "your" JI is better
than the rest or whatever.

And if your approach to JI has been to get yourself used to chords with wolf
fifths in them, why not just get used to melodic leaps of wolf intervals as
well? Then again, it's hard to be critical about what you're doing when you
don't really explain exactly what your approach is.

-Mike

I must say...this time around I can tell a significant improvement in clarity over 12TET. Good job!

Hello Michael,

Thank you! :)
You're the first person to say so.

Btw I'm seeing similarities between mij method and what you've tried to do
in the past.
I can remember you were searching for the most consonant way to play 9 or
more notes together.
I'm currently using a scale of 10 notes per octave derived from all possible
permutations of the harmonic series limited to the 6th harmonic as a fixed
scale from the tonic.
The scale derived from this method is 1/1 9/8 6/5 5/4 4/3 3/2 8/5 5/3 9/5
15/8 2/1 where the tonic is 1/1.
The tonic is modulated extensively throughout the piece and the scale moves
with it.
