 One way to correct the cents errors might be to have a 5th valve, a trombone-style one, that moves a tiny amount depending on which of the other 4 valves are open. It could be done with a microchip, 4 sensors and a very accurate stepper motor. It would run off a battery, or perhaps solar power.
-The next chart shows each harmonic's 16 notes plotted against the full 41edo gamut of notes. There is over 2 octaves total range. Note the 8 missing notes in the lowest part of the range, and the 3 missing notes in the highest part. The next two harmonics, 10 and 11, merely extend the pitches of harmonic 9 without supplying any missing notes.

Note the 8 missing notes in the lowest part of the range, and the 3 missing notes in the highest part, all marked with asterisks. The next two harmonics, 10 and 11, merely extend the pitches of harmonic 9 without supplying any missing notes. Likewise the previous harmonic, 2, merely extends the pitches of harmonic 3 downwards.
