Alt Tuning tools for Mac OS X?

Hi everyone! Been away a while. Still studying and writing and practicing and planning
and singing barbershop, and looking to change the frets on my guitar and my Stick...

Anyway, I *finally* updated from my old OS9 imac and got a new G5 iMac and the latest OS
X. I know that back when I was more involved there were lots of tools I couldn't use
because I didn't have OS X. Now I do. And I assume things may have changed a bit too.

I bought Digital Performer, partly for its now built-in, adjustable, easy pitch control of
audio recordings. I haven't got into using it yet. I don't know if it has easy MIDI or audio
pitch libraries like Logic supposedly has, but anyway, DP is what I've got.
I also got the latest Finale.

Aside from that, all I've got is JI Calc that can run under classic still.

Is there something like JI Calc but better? Ideally that can send tuning signals through OS
X's MIDI stuff to my keyboard? More responsive hopefully? Just as adjustable?

How about tips for DP or Finale JI and alt work? What other tools should I get?

How about analysis? Mac the Scope looks good... I really have no experience with stuff
like that though and I've got a low budget. It'd be nice to be able to identify the harmonic
(or inharmonic) content of both solo and ensemble recordings... I don't really need other
sorts of analysis though...

Thanks!

I've never used JI Calc, but I'm surprised that no one's
responded (judging by the thread view below your message)
yet. LMSO (again, I've never used it, as I don't have a
Mac at home) is looking pretty impressive...

Apparently that thread view doesn't work very well (or maybe
the replying posters didn't hit "reply"?)...
