Hi all, I finished up my SeqV4 build this weekend (what a smooth project!). This thing is incredible. Reading through the manual, and there's a really good chance I missed it, I don't see the ability to define custom scales. I like to play with microtonal music sometimes, and would love the ability to define a custom scale for the FTS function. For example, I'm interested in 16EDO (16 Equal Divisions of the Octave) which has 16 notes per octave compared to the normal 12. This can be emulated in MIDI with pitch-bend messages -- for example, the C-16EDO chromatic scale would be (based on some arduino code I've hacked together in the past): PitchBend 0 NoteOn C-3 // C3 +0 cents PitchBend 3072 NoteOn C-3 // C3 +75 cents PitchBend 2048 NoteOn C#3 // C#3 +50 cents PitchBend 1024 NoteOn D-3 // D3 +25 cents PitchBend 0 NoteOn D#3 // D#3 +0 cents PitchBend 3072 NoteOn D#3 // D#3 +75 cents PitchBend 2048 NoteOn E-3 // E3 +50 cents PitchBend 1024 NoteOn F-3 // F3 +25 cents PitchBend 0 NoteOn F#3 // F#3 +0 cents PitchBend 3072 NoteOn F#3 // F#3 +75 cents PitchBend 2048 NoteOn G-3 // G3 +50 cents PitchBend 1024 NoteOn G#3 // G#3 +25 cents PitchBend 0 NoteOn A-3 // A3 +0 cents PitchBend 3072 NoteOn A-3 // A3 +75 cents PitchBend 2048 NoteOn A#3 // A#3 +50 cents PitchBend 1024 NoteOn B-3 // B3 +25 cents Now, I'm pretty sure that I could figure this all out in the CC layering... but is there an easier way to do this already? And if not... how do I humbly put in an enhancement request for a custom scale editor (that includes pitch-bend info per interval)?
