Harmonic Scale Tuner

A Musescore plugin for tuning scores to the Harmonic Scale.

Features

This plugin can be used to tune the whole score, or only a portion of it, to the Harmonic scale.

For example, if the fundamental note is C, the tuning offset of the notes is:

By default C is the fundamental note, but it can be changed by using a System Text (for changing it for every instrument) or a Staff Text (for changing it for the current instrument only) indicating the new fundamental note.
This text must be formatted as follows:

• Optionally it can have the text in at the beginning, followed by a space character.
• The new fundamental note, written either by using the english note names, or the solfege syllables.
• The accidental applied to the fundamental note, if any. This can be written either by using the proper unicode characters for musical accidentals 𝄫, ♭, ♯ and 𝄪, or with the ASCII characters bb, b, # and x.

This text is not case sensitive, and can be safely made invisible without affecting the plugin.

This is an example of two changes of fundamental notes, first setting it to B♭, and then to A♭:

Usage

• Put in the score the texts to indicate the changes of fundamental note, if necessary.
• If you want to tune only a portion of the score, select it before running the plugin. If nothing is selected, the entire score will be tuned.
• Launch the plugin: Plugins → Playback → Harmonic Scale Tuner
