Dear Amaya Garcìa Pèrez,
I read about mesolabium some times ago in Zarlino's Istitutioni
Harmoniche. If you know Italian, it contains a very good explanation. You can find it
in the Second Part of the book, at chapter 25-26. Moreover, Zarlino uses
this method for finding out comma's fractions in chapter 44 of the same
Second Part. I am triyng to calculate these comma's fractions using a
Mesolabium, but it is very difficult as I am not a matemathician. Have you got any
addictional information?
Sincerely,
Dr. Andrea Marcialis
Venice, Italy
