Keyboard Tuning

In addition to the standard equally divided octave tuning, UltraProteus contains
four other types of scale tuning and one user-definable tuning. This function
selects which tuning will be used in the current preset.
The choices of keyboard tunings are:
Equal tuning (12 tone equal temperament)
Standard Western tuning.
Just C tuning (just intonation)
Based on small interval ratios. Sweet and pure, non-beating intervals.
Vallotti tuning (Vallotti & Young non-equal temperament)
Similar to 12 tone equal temperament. For a given scale, each key has a differ-
ent character
19 Tone tuning (19 tone equal temperament)
19 notes per octave. Difficult to play, but works well with a sequencer.
Gamelan (Javanese) tuning (5 tone Slendro and 7 tone Pelog)
Pelog-white keys, Slendro-black keys. Exotic tunings of Gamelan flavor.
User tuning
Defined in the Master menu.
