I copied 3,304 *.SCL files (scala tuning) from my Rapture tunings folder into the scales folder for SynthMaster. As a result, I was not able to use SynthMaster in Sonar X2 -- every time I tried to load it, Sonar crashed. I removed all the tuning files from the scales folder, except for the one that was there originally (EqualTempered.scl), and Synthmaster worked fine.

I'd like to use micro-tuning. Does this feature work?

Yes it works. Probably SynthMaster could not parse some of those 3304! files.

If you sent them to me, I'll debug and fix the parse error.

Yeah, 3304 is a lot of files!

What email address should I send them to?

hi there, i put some different tunings in the scale folder, they all work, but they don't change with the preset

once i've changed it, that's it, it stays the same for all presets.

is that how the tunings work or should i be able to have whichever tuning i choose saved in each preset?

also, would it be possible to have a next button or something to click through the tunings more easily/faster?

cheers

Are you changing the tuning from the "Settings" tab? That changes the tuning globally.

no, i'm changing the tuning from the preset page and the default scale in the 'settings' tab is set to preset.

Ok looks like one of those files had 441 different notes in the scale definition. Limiting that to 128 fixed the crash. Now let's continue fixing other issues!

I don't need 441 notes in a scale

Thanks for the quick response!

No unfortunately. Working for me. What's the host?

Why isn't it possible simply to load a scala file from a different folder? This would be easier than copying more than 2500 scala files to the scale folder...

This is called a "feature request". well, why not ?

I'll add a new line inside the configuration file:

Scales Folder=Default

If the setting is NOT Default, then it's a path the user has set. This way we can load tunes in a different folder.

Ok will add that next week. I am planing to release SynthMaster 2.6 with CM/BE skins/presets and new Rob Lee presets.

Isn't it possible to add a button "Load microtune" to SynthMaster to load only ONE scala file from a different folder? That would be great - by simply clicking on a button and then loading ONE scala file without need to change the config file...

I remember that my first idea after buying SynthMaster was to copying all available 2500 Scala files to the scale folder, and as soon as I loaded SynthMaster, the whole plugin including my DAW crashed...
