The MT-1200 manual can be found
atA [1]http://seanmehan.globat.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/mt12
00.pdf.zip
It has a supplement which gives cents deviation for each pitch in the
chromatic scale for each temperament as provided by Korg.
Some other useful resources:
Bradley Lehman's pages on temperaments (Lehman is the one who believes
that Bach left the recipe for his personal well-temperament in the
graphic curlicue at the top of the first page of a manuscript. His
pages are full of useful approaches to temperaments, regardless of the
controversies surrounding his claimed
find.)A [2]http://www-personal.umich.edu/~bpl/larips/
One source which is surprisingly good is wikipedia, which often
provides deviation charts and considerable other info related to
temperaments, usually by name.

One thing -- as Arto said, it is possible with Cleartune to display
the frequency. I also didn't know about the Android version, and so
I got that one as well. On that version "1/6 SC Attenuated" is
simply displayed as "6 Comma Meantone", so I have to assume they're
the same thing. In any case, I'll just use my phone to tune in most
situations.
Thanks again to everyone.

I found the mode that allows me to see the frequencies; it acts as
sort of a pitch pipe. I'll look at this a little more later today.
Thanks, David and Arto.

At least my Cleartune in Android shows also the frequencies...

A A Hi David:
A A Thanks very much for the info. The tuner is Cleartune for the

A A Great idea, making a list -- I'll see if I can find a tuner
that
A A displays frequencies and work from there.
A A Best,

A A A Hi Doug
A A Attenuated is diluted or weakened. For a temperament this can
mean that
A A the extremes are made a little less extreme. For (any shade
of) mean
A A tone usually this means making the wolf less harsh by
lessening the
A A cents deviations from ET around the wolf. If you give the
brand and
A A model of your tuner, maybe someone can dig up a cents or
frequency
A A list, or tou can make one with another tuner(app) that
displays

such a list,
A A very enlightening.

A A A Dear collected wisdom:
A A A I recently bought a software tuner that had support for
non-equal

A A A is 1/6 SC Attenuated. I assume, perhaps wrongly, that 1/6

A A A But if I'm correct so far, what the heck is "Attenuated"?
I've
