[representing pitch]

i'm a classically trained musician, and i even failed to learn csound
properly, but even so it strikes me as highly arbitrary and somewhat
anachronistic to stick to the 12 semitones/octave model. 
so i'd strongly second steve's suggestion to have 1.0f per octave and
nothing else (you might say even the notion of an octave is
anachronistic, but then it's a ratio of 2:1, which *is* some sort of
natural constant in music).

back to lurk mode...
