You can create your personal tuning scales by editing the notes per octave (the tune offsets are applied equally to all octaves on the keyboard) or by editing the MIDI notes individually (the tune offsets are applied only to individual notes). Editing the scale per octave is particularly useful for creating different temperaments. Editing the scale per note is mainly useful for creating stretched tunings.

To edit the scale per octave, proceed as follows:

  1. Click the Oct button to the right of the scale editor.

  2. In the scale editor, click in the Offset text field of the note you wish to adjust in the scale editor.

  3. Set the tune offset within the range of -100.00 cent to +100.00 cent.

The offsets of the 12 notes are applied to all octaves equally.

To edit the scale per note, proceed as follows:

  1. Click the Note button to the right of the scale editor.

  2. In the scale editor, click in the Offset value field of the note you wish to adjust.

  3. Set the tune offset within the range of -100.00 cent to +100.00 cent.

The offsets are applied to the 128 MIDI notes individually.
