The 8 fork Harmony set is based on Pythagorean Tuning, rather than the traditional Tempered Tuning.
The forks are traditionally used in pairs, with the 256 Hz 'C' in one hand, and a second fork in the other, creating the desired interval, as shown in the Ratio column below. The lower the ratio, the more pleasant the sound.
