Which tuning chart? The one on pdf page 97 (pencil foliation 96r.)? That chart (fol. 96r.) doesn't indicate octave disposition at all. It might only show pitch class (similar to the bass string indications on fol. 48 v. The 'Accordo Chitarra9 et Mandora' on that page only gives octaves. BTW, a Mandora with 12 strings? Pretty interesting, IMHO. Of course that would be an easy reuse for an out-of-fashion baroque lute. BTW, the 'Fundamenta Chitarra9' on fol. 48r. (pdf 49) does show a 6 string, but only unfretted.
