I've been working on a very simple, standardized notation scheme for any tuning system. It has standard nominals, a standard way to assign accidentals, generalizes the two-staff bass/treble clef notation, has a standard way to standardize the range of each staff, and has a standard way to set the absolute pitch of the staves (and hence the whole tuning system). | I've been working on a very simple, standardized notation scheme for any tuning system.

This is all now so long that nobody will ever read it, but since I'm on a roll, I'll post it anyway, at least for future reference. There's one really longwinded thing that I want to address, and that's the concept of absolute pitch standardization. | This is all now so long that nobody will ever read it, but since I'm on a roll, I'll post it anyway, at least for future reference.
