Re: [Doepfer_a100] Quantizing to Alternative tuning

2014-10-09 by David Kellett

I shall have a serious look at the Ardcore then. It sounds as though it would be good for a lot of odder things. But the trouble would be that I think I'd need possibly several channels of quantization and that's gonna get expensive!! 

- Ernst, what where you thinking of doing with microtonal tunings?

Thanks for the input,

David

I'm thinking about making a price of music that is tuned to harmonics and would like to be able to quantize sequencers, other controllers to pitches that I determine beforehand. I hope that makes sense.
