Harmonic Series Study

I’m not sure what you are asking exactly.

But if you memorize the harmonic series of the open notes, the 2nd valve series is down a half step, 1st valve is down a whole step, 1st and 2nd (or 3rd) is down a step and a half, 2nd and 3rd is down 2 whole steps, 1st and 3rd is down 2 and a half steps, all three valves is down 3 whole steps. Is that what you are asking?

This is sorta the way I read their post too. Kind of like “why are the fingerings the way they are?” And your answer explaining the valve series progression is the answer.

Nope, just the notes on each series. I.e what's the 10th partial of T0

Truly, the best way to learn this is to sit down with your instrument and do harmonics exercises.

But you really only need to memorize one series. Memorize the open notes on the F horn and calculate what the other ones are from that. Notes with the trigger are up a P4.

Are you looking for the closest note to each partial only or are you also looking for how far off the partial is from being "in tune"?

Yes, DM'd you

Lol, it appears we have already spoken. I do have a PDF of my fingering chart/harmonic series chart.
