Equal temperament with 1/4 tones
I'm trying to write a music in Equal temperament with 1/4 tones. I found that in version 0.9.6 there is a fantastic new plug-in called "Temperament Tuning"... but I can't undestand WHAT am I to write into the different fields of "Edit (as scale)! Maybe the difference in cents?? and difference from WHAT?? And how much is it in a tempered 1/4-tone scale??
I'm quite new to such problems...
Thank you for help!

xiano,
I have not seen the PlugIn but, as far as I know, 100 cent stand for 1/2 tone (in equal temperament).
So if you want to create 1/4 Note temperament you would have to add or subtract 50 cent from each value.
Does this help?
The "Temperament Tunings" is for experimenting with playback in different temperaments . It is not for quarter tone music.
It sounds like you are actually looking for this plugin: http://musescore.org/en/project/microtune
The initial settings are already set up for quarter-tone scales so just follow the install instructions and choose Plugin > Micro-tonal tunings on the score of your choice.

Thank you!
Thank you very much! I have installed the microtune plugin, and I think it's the right one for me!
