But you need to describe more of what you want to do. It almost sounds like you are suggesting a keyboard that notices what key you're playing in and adjusts the intonation on the fly.<br></blockquote></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">This is how I interpreted Didier's question.
