Re: [LAU] tuning midi to alternative temperaments

Rustom> So the question: How does one specify alternative Rustom> temperaments to timidity? You download the set of tuning files from scala <http://www.huygens-fokker.org/scala/>. I've forgotten exactly what I did to turn the .scl file into a .tbl file; it might have been run the scala program and export in timidity format or something. Then when you have the .tbl file you want, you run: timidity -Z file.tbl <midi file> If someone knows of a less clumsy way to do this, or a source of lots of .tbl files, I'd be glad to hear of it, too. I can send you my quarter-comma meantone .tbl. -- Laura (mailto:lconrad@laymusic.org) (617) 661-8097 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 http://www.laymusic.org/ http://www.serpentpublications.org The good life, as I conceive it, is a happy life.
