DESCRIPTION

This synthesizer can transpose "Just Intonation" or any other 12-tone scales you made, to own 12 members. For example, if you move Modulation Wheel and set the transpose to "7", Just intonation starts from "G". Tunings of F, A, and C# are changed. The principle is simple, rise the tunings of whole keyboard (+702 cent) and transpose it down (-7 semitones) simultaneously.
Just intonation has a "wolf fifth", but you may keep away the wolves if you can keep choosing appropriate keys (depends on the song).


Scale A: Specify scale in fractions

Scale B: Specify in Fifth and Comma (cent)
Comma is a difference from base pythagorean tuning, for example, E0 and E-1 in the picture. If Comma = 0, you can make various meantones (include the Pythagorean scale and equal temperaments).

Scale C: Specify all tones manually (cent)


Synth A: Normal analog synth with 3 envelopes

Synth B: Additive synth that has 8 sine oscillators
(The oscillators can choose integer harmonics only.)

To use Synth B, please EDIT this synth slightly in Reaktor.
"Picture" Macro -> Visible OFF
"Synth B" Macro -> Visible ON

Or convert to more good synth you have;)

is this a work of genius? i have heard of automatic dynamic just intonation (which is not great) but i never considered a user operated system like this....... i am surprised at how musical sounding judiciously applied re-tuning is. bach is jealous
