All,
  Im in the process of getting my CV keyboard up and running and since I 
already have a midi/cv converter, I was thinking of maybe setting this up in 
a different scale, perhaps a microtonal style tuning.?  correct me if i am 
wrong, but is this the Indian scale?  Sure you can rig up a decent sitar 
patch, but it doesnt sound too convincing with the standard piano tuning.  
So.. Is this possible?  Could it be done by replacing the 100ohm resistors on 
each key to another value?  Or would pots be needed and each one need to be 
tuned?  Or is the basic piano key architecture not sutiable for what I want 
to do?  Anyone have any links off hand relating to this?  Thanks again,
~SteveM
