I believe Plogue has a sequencer module (http://www.kvraudio.com/get/286.html) , like Ext. All I can say about Tonescape is to try to install it, and if it gives an application error, it won't work.

Is Plogue Bidule a sequencer? Kvraudio.com calls it a "modular synthesizer" From the looks

of it, Tonescape has something of a microtonal piano roll. Here is a screenshot: http://

tonalsoft.com/ support/tonescap e/help/tonescape -overview. aspx; look at the last pic.

How do i know of my video works w/ 'vertex shaders' Hopefully, i only need it for the Lattice

View, which i'm not too interested in.

I doubt the software emulation is working. Maybe you can put in some way to manually turn it on.

The part of Tonescape you'd be interested in is called

"Pitch-Height View", and yes, it is like "piano-roll"

except that the look of it mirrors the intervallic structure

of your tuning. So if you have unevenly-spaced intervals

in your tuning, you will have unevenly-sized bars in

your "piano-roll" . Also, if you use an equivalence- interval

(typically the "octave"), then the "piano-roll" will have

however many steps your tuning has in that interval.

Tonescape supports just-intonation in up to 7 dimensions

(for example, you could use 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, and 19

as your generators, along with 2 as the equivalence- interval) ,

it lets you use non-prime generators if that's what you want,

it lets you temper a just-intonation tonespace in any way

you want (to create, say, a "linear temperament" such as a

fraction-of- a-comma meantone), and it supports equal-temperaments

from 5 to 799 tones per octave. 53-edo is totally supported.

Yes, the vertex shaders are only needed for the Lattice View,

which in fact is the main feature of Tonescape's user interface.

However, if your video card does not support vertex shaders,

Tonescape is supposed to use software emulation of them.

There apparently are a few problems with this, as some

people who have attempted to install or use Tonescape have

run into trouble with it, and we're working on fixing that.

Basically, if you have are using Windows XP for your

operating system and you have a fairly recent and decent

video-card, it should work OK.

Please note that you should install all the Windows updates

that you can before installing Tonescape. Also note that

in some cases, when it doesn't work at first, it will work

later -- i had a little bit of trouble getting it to work

correctly on my XP system, but since fixing something with

my system's audio software (now i don't remember what it was),

it has been running fine ever since, with only one minor

bug concerning the Lattice View which pops infrequently.

The current "Den Haag" version of Tonescape does not seem

to run under Windows 2000, altho older versions did.

We have not yet tested it on Vista.
