hey there,

i'm having hard times with the scales section. i want to play microtonal scales such as the 19tet and so forth.
i only succeeded with the Bohlen-Pierce-Scale so far.
Sections of the Keyboard aren't playable, also the intervalls seem not to be set propper.
When i tried on 19tet one octave was fine, but in thr lower the interval from "C#" to "D" was something very consonant (maybe a 5th? i'm not the best in intervall-hearing)

Also in the scale operator it says you can load scale settings from elsewhere. is there a posibility to download scale and mapping settings?

thanks for your answers
so long

As far as I knew, Zyn worked fine with scala files...
You have to enable "Microtonal" and load a *.scl file. Then click "Retune".

Maybe you can find the scale you're looking for here:

Or maybe you could write one yourself. This is a description of the format.

For 19tET you can find the data in cents here:
