Re: Tuning Tables [was Greetings - sort of]

That extrapolate scale sounds very handy!! I am curious how you use the scales. I have been fascinated by them for years--even had a Harry Partch album decades ago--but I never did anything, other than just test them out on the P2500.

I have amassed a collection of ethnic instrument samples and was thinking of of adapting an arduino program I have been working on to generate patterns I can jam on top of. The last I worked on it, the test program would generate random notes according to a scaled array I had coded. It might be interesting to do that with altered tunings.

When I looked at the scala sitethe other day, I was amazed that there were that many scales. I thought it was in the hundreds.

If you have any tunes posted on a site, I'd be interested in hearing how you use the tunings.
