I've done software that tunes a synth to a just ( Pythagorean) scale
thru an MP401 board on a pc. I'm not a keyboardist, but a couple of
rounds and chorales I've sequenced for it sound great! They have the
purity of sound of an excellent choir singing a capella ( sp?) or
with a string accompaniment.

Now I'd appreciate some advice on user's interface. Since the tuning
is in software, it is very fast to retune to a different key, say from
C to G. How would it be best for a keyboardist to do that?

My first thought was to ask in the setup routines for the synth note
that would indicate that the next note pressed would be the key note
for the new scale. That indicator note would be the leftmost or rightmost
key.

Would it be useful to be able to program a sequence of keys to retune to?
Perhaps every time you pressed the space bar it would tune to the next key
on a list set down at setup time?

I haven't tried it yet, but it should be reasonable easy to do a software
keyboard split, with each split having its own MIDI program. Would this
be of interest to many people?

Any and all feedback appreciated. Thanks.
