MOTM

Hey, that microtonal link is pretty good.  But it doesn't list the MOTM!

I'm bookmarking the page, especially for the scales.  Too bad it doesn't 
list volts in addition to fractions and cents.  There must exist a formula 
to convert from cents to volts. . ..

Raymond Scott is credited with inventing the sequencer,

been independent of that.

A "traditional" analog sequencer (like the Miton which I just posted
about, the fabled SuperMoe, Moog 960 (?), Serge TKB, and the long
illusive MOAS) has at least one row of pots arranged in stages
(typically 8 to 16). Each pot is used to set a voltage which then shows
up at the sequencer output when that stage is selected. I think these
were essentially invented by Don Buchla.
