Actually
http://www.sonicvisualiser.org/ may be the tool of choice.
Here's a video where it is used to slow down some Bach so that you can
hear the "beating/pulsing" introduce by equal-temperament tuning:

Hey Thanks! sonic visualizer seems to be what I want.
Showing temperament variations visually is high on my list of what I want to
do though that video is not doing such a good job of it.
indeed, even though one gets the gist.
Well, here's your chance to make a better one :)
The videos at
http://www.sonicvisualiser.org/videos.html are better
quality, but there's nothing there about temperament-analysis or
demonstrating analogies of patterns at different orders of magnitude of
frequency.
Any other suggestions for that will be most welcome!
maybe
http://clam-project.org/
http://isophonics.net/sawa/ is a web-interface that can do so (alas, the
website's upload function seems to broken at the moment) but under the
hood it uses the
http://www.vamp-plugins.org/ as does sonic-visualizer.
Maybe s.o. else on the list knows one.
On the other hand I can put take Indian classical
music, slow it down with
sonicV and get more microtonal distinctions than one can easily hear at
normal tempo.
sure, it's definitly a good tool to hands-on explore the "wider
ramifications of music".
have fun,
