Topic: scala files and temperaments
I'd like to learn more about temperaments and feeding ptq Scala files. I've done a Google search and come up with far too much information to wade through. Can anyone recommend a good concise source of information?
Two specific questions:
The Scala file for Werckmeister III consists of this:
! werck3.scl
!
Andreas Werckmeister's temperament III (the most famous one, 1681)
12
!
256/243
192.18000
32/27
390.22500
4/3
1024/729
696.09000
128/81
888.26999
16/9
1092.18000
2/1
Is the reference note for this A?
What would the Scala file for ptq's "well tempered" temperament be? I ask this because that temperament works well in CGDFBb but gets progressively stranger as you modulate away from C major and I'd like to create another three WT scales centred around Eb F# and A.
