WellTemp

Generate tuning tables for historical well-tempered keyboard instruments

Audio AIFree

WellTemp computes string frequency and cent deviation tables for 22 historical keyboard temperaments including Young, Vallotti, Kirnberger III, and six-comma meantone. The tool generates beat rate tables for aural tuning by calculating inter-string beat frequencies at check intervals across the temperament bearings. Comparison spectrograms visualize harmonic consonance quality for all 24 major and minor triads across selected temperament candidates to guide period-appropriate instrument tuning selections.
