Talk:Septimal meantone temperament

If this is "septimal meantone", then what do you call the linear temperament with a generator of a narrow fourth or wide fifth, so the minor third approximates 7/6 and the major third approximates 9/7? Would that be called "reverse meantone"? —Keenan Pepper 21:48, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wouldn't that be a type of schismatic temperament? — Gwalla | Talk 05:23, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well in this case it would be tempering the septimal comma 64:63 to a unison, not tempering out a schisma. 'Meantone' would not quite be the right term unless the fifth was widened just enough to make 9:7 pure, leaving a wide mean tone halfway between 9:8 and 8:7. 69.7.77.20 (talk) 21:39, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article consists almost entirely of unreferenced original research. Nowhere (in three languages) have I found printed material, physically or online, to support the existence of this material in "mainstream" thought or practice. This is a shame, as the work is well done and the results interesting. Please (whoever is doing this original research) write a paper or book and get it published. Once referenced , I'd be happy to link it deeper in Wikipedia "reality". This could easily be done, as there is verifiable historical precedent for the concepts originated here (in Tartini, for example). Frank Zamjatin (talk) 11:41, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
