29-73

This tuning begins a set of four in a row that are more violent than their neighbors. All four have two or more degrees that must be tuned quite far beyond the range of -99 to +99 c with respect to 12 EDO. Those degrees are flagged by a red Rounded Tuning Table cell. In this tuning, degrees 7-10(F#-A) are more than 200 c from 12 EDO.
