Pitch curve

Author: rgoldem

Clark Fobes in his article Tuning and Voicing the Clarinet (http://www.clarkwfobes.com/pages/tuning-and-voicing-the-clarinet) presents a chart with a pitch curve for a Buffet R13. This chart was very enlightening and I was trying to find other curves to compare to my own instruments. However I was not lucky and I thought people at the forum could advise me finding something similar. Can anyone help me with this matter? Thank you.

P.S: English is not my mother tongue; please excuse any errors on my part.

A most useful software tuner: Chromatia Tuner ( http://download.cnet.com/Chromatia-Tuner/3000-2170_4-30424.html ).

Martin Schöttle uses it for his intonation measurements in combination with Excel spreadsheets:

I used it on some of my clarinets, trying to compensate my limited playing abilities by averaging repeated measurements (see screenshot).
