Maybe. My objection to converters is more that they imply two parallel
representations of frequency (in the broad sense of the word), which seems
like a mistake.
I still maintain that your average DSP programmer is capable of multiplying
an octave number by 12 to get a 12tET MIDI note number. Even a VST
programmer ;)
I said I was going to stop arguing this point! Oh well.
