Arabic tuning table

Arabic tuning table

2004-11-02 by smwither2002

I've been working on some alternate tuning tables for the XL and I 
have some values for anyone who wants to try it out.  Go to the user 
tuning table in Global menu and input the following offsets:

NOTE       COARSE       FINE
C          -1           +56
C#          0           +29
D           -1          +63
D#          -1          +56
E           -1          +31
F           -1          +59
F#          0           +29
G           -1          +59
G#          0           +30
A           0            0
A#          -1          +58
B           -1          +33

Of course you have to do this for every octave; it's a bit tedious.  
But it works nicely with World plucked instruments, for instance.
If anyone else has any tuning tips, please post.
