Hey all,
Since the subject of temperaments and tunings came up I just wanted to

mention that I'm such a passionate devotee of non-12-equal tunings and

microtonality, that I started an organization called UnTwelve (

www.untwelve.org), whose mission is to program and educate people on music

in various different tunings and temperaments.
You'll also be interested to know that I hacked on Aeolus 6 years or so ago

and added a custom Just Intonation scale using only the 3rd and 7th

harmonics. The results can be heard at:
http://www.akjmusic.com/audio/theatre_work/PeerGynt/07_troll_music.mp3
to explore some of my other stuff, check out the general portal to my music

at

Cheers,

Aaron.

It's easy to change. Edit the file stops-***/Aeolus/definition.

Near the top you'll find a line
/tuning 440.0 1
The second number is an index into the list in my previous

post, starting at zero. You'll find it as well in scales.cc.
Werckmeister III will probably work well in most cases.

To test, play something in A flat. The main problem with

Meantone is the Ab-C-Eb chord (just try it !).
If you want to switch easily, you could for example create

a directory stops-***/Aeolus-ET, copy the definition file

there and set it to Equal Temperament. Then use the -I

command line option to select this one.
Ciao,
