Temperament Software

[Kent Swafford]

I see no one has jumped in to answer this. Although interest in non-equal
temperaments is on the rise in the piano world, I believe interest has waned
in this subject somewhat over the years in the electronic realm. Quite a bit
of work was done some time ago; the area is ripe for resurgence.

All of the Roland SoundCanvas products including the software versions of
these synths can be offset to non-equal temperaments in 1 cent increments.
Standard MIDI files (SMF) were created to set the SoundCanvas quickly to any
of a large number of temperaments. You would need a Roland SoundCanvas and a
MIDI sequencer to transmit the tuning files.
