- hannasanarion 3y agoYeah, lots of synthesizers have that feature, but the problem is that it's accomplished "client side", by the synth. It recieves a MIDI message that says "Play me a D" and the minilogue in Werckmeister mode plays a D detuned by 6 cents instead. Crucially, it makes the instrument play something different than what the controller asked for. Unless your entire setup is composed only of Minilogues all configured in the same tuning settings, your electronic instruments will be out of tune with each other. Plug in an old yamaha because you like the sound? Now everything is out of tune. This isn't supposed to happen in a MIDI workflow. It would be much better to be able to specify tuning system in the midi messages itself, so that any instrument, hardware, software, or whatever, knows to make it's Ds 6 cents flat so your whole electronic orchestra can be in Werckmeister tuning together, instead of just the one minilogue.
