And, not unimportantly, people in the so called "old music" and Baroque music scenes are still verbally slaying each other over that one Martin :D
Not everyone agrees on which tuning Bach intended that collection of pieces to be played in.

Intonation or temperament are other terms for micro-tuning, it was a big thing a few centuries ago when keyboard instruments were being invented. "The Well Tempered Klavier" by Bach is a historic reference to this.

This thread is getting better and better! Thanks for all the other mentioned alternatives.
Nicholas what do you mean with AFX scales Microtonal tuning existed several decades before Richard D. James began talking about it last month ;-)

That A.Sys one doesn't do eastern or "AFX" scales either, only semitones in various configurations

Subject: 1 Quantizing to Alternative tuning

 

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone knows of a module or modules that could be set up to take control voltages and quantized them to a non western scale. I'm thinking about making a price of music that is tuned to harmonics and would like to be able to quantize sequencers, other controllers to pitches that I determine beforehand. I hope that makes sense.

Of course I could laboriously tune sequencers to the correct pitches but I don't know how to do this with say the output of a random or LFO source or ribbon controller etc.

Any ideas

David
