3:1 12th s? Verituner

[Andrew and Rebeca Anderson]

Ron Koval's One for All style for the Verituner got me to tinkering 
with my unit.  His style is a nice very clean (no stretch) tuning 
that works well on small instruments and is acceptable for most 
situations although you may want more stretch in concert halls.

I got Rick Baldassin's book, "On Pitch", out and started tinkering 
with a tuning to use on the concert instruments I maintain (selecting 
style points in the compass related to usual scaling breaks).  The 
choice of octaves at each style point is limited on the Verituner by 
the area you are at on the piano.  From the mid-range up there is the 
choice of the 3:1 12th.  I'm curious how that compares a-la 
Baldassin's discussion style with other octaves.  This choice isn't 
mentioned in his book and I'm not sure that I understand it correctly.

By the way doing this has made the tunings come out much more like my 
studied aural tunings and cleaned up the low tenor on the concert 
grands a lot.  The stock tuning styles have very few check points and 
a single octave choice per point resulting in very little octave 
choice being accessed by the computer.

Any comments or explication welcome.
