i made a natural minor tuning from a C-Harp, but i don't know what the exact values (cent/hertz) ? i only have harmonic minor pro harp for reference, but a few notes are missing. once i was adviced for maj7 tuning and indeed it sounds a lot better than my tuning on F#, which was too high pitched ... please can someone give the details for the natural minor ?
one experience: i retuned a C-Harp , 3 draw = B , but mine was also too high pitche, that it really sounded awful, even the chord DGB , but i could help myself , because i have many many C harps for comparison and it sounded much better to lower B a little under 0 . unfortunately my digital tuner is not as good as one with "needles", so i almost take another of same model and key for reference ...
... but the correct cent/hz seems to be very important, i found out, even if there is only 1 instrument in special tuning ...
