Hello everybody!

I've discovered that there was a book or a broshure called "Systematic tuning" written by Felix Rohner. Does anyone know where I can find it? There are some links in Google but they don't work..

I'll be very appreciate for any help!!! Thank you)

"A Systematic Tuning Process" was the title of one of several papers by Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer presented by PANArt at the first International Conference on Science and Technology of the Steelpan (ICSTS), October 2000 in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad.

These Papers were published in the "Tuniversity" at PANArt's former Website panart.ch, which was closed 2002 when PANArt started hang.ch, a website specialized on the Hang ( http://www.hangblog.org/the-hang-lexicon/#wwwhangch ).

In the year 2003 these papers were edited by a person from Trinidad and published in "The Steelbands (Pan) of Trinidad and Tobago ARCHIVES Database". The Domain of this website was shut down because of unknown reasons but the website was relaunched in spring 2008 ( http://www.hangblog.org/2008/03/05/rese ... -are-back/ ). A number of weeks ago the second domain http://www.tobago.org was shut down again.

Currently you can find the text of the papers at web.archive.org where PANArt's former website panart.ch was archived. But only the text is stored. All the figures are lost.

It is important to understand that the papers reflect PANArt's knowledge and methods status 2000. Reading these papers you can understand that PANArt aimed at a develpment of steelpan tuning at that time. This goal wasn't successful because their ideas were not answered by other tuners.
