Doepfer

I think I missed an email - who is RDJ?

I do want more than 1/4 tones.

I just mentioned it as an example earlier because it had been in the press and provided an example of non-chromatic.

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.
