I am a little confused about the Ageton methods. I have searched the forum and found several topics:
Ageton/Bayless
Ageton Classic
Classic Trig Log SR with Ageton
I am guessing that that the methods are
HO 211 1938 The original publication. (I have a copy)
Ageton/Bayless, which in later editions included the Sadler technique. I do not know how this differs from 1938 Ageton.
Ageton/Rudzinski which uses Ageton's tables but is a simpler method.
Then there is Ageton Classic which to me means Ageton 1938 but the context suggests Ageton/Rudinski.
Can someone please explain how the various methods fit together. In particular what do I need to download to try the improved Ageton method that I have seen reference to.
