Re: [Doepfer_a100] Quantizing to Alternative tuning

2014-10-09 by David Kellett

Ummmm I shall have to check that out before any purchase!! Though if the quantizer works for 12 semi tones would other divisions of a bolt be very different?

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.
