Dear List,
i am searching for a way to simulate a microdetuned piano using some
softsampler or other instrument on linux.
So far i have been using fluidsynth for normal tuning, but need to
specify the tuning myself for an upcoming piece.
Any hints are greatly appreciated,
regards, PP

you can use Scala <http://www.xs4all.nl/~huygensf/scala/> to generate
tuning files to use with Timidity and other synthesizers. It takes some
time to get used to it but it works very well.
Attached is a command script for Scala which I used to systematically
generate Timidity tunings.
Cheers,
Jan

IIRC, ZynAddSubFX supports Scala intonation files.
Best,

Thanks Jan and Dave,
scala looks like a good tool!
great list, as always, btw!

Hallo,

Btw.: If you want to use scala tuning descriptions in Pd, you may be
interested in my [tunetof] abstraction for this and/or the scl2pd.py
script to convert *.scl files to files suitable for loading into Pd
tables that comes with it. [tunetof] basically is a [mtof] substitute
that can load different tunings. All of this is available at
/trunk/abstractions/footils/tunetof in the Pd SVN repository.
And if someone knows how to make the fluidsynth library play in a
different tune, I'd be glad to hear. (Note: that's for the [fluid~]
object in Pd, not for standalone fluidsynth.)
Ciao
