4 people think this is out of tune.

[MaxRidgway]

@viper1991 Yeah - imagine that!

[clones98]

dude! this rocks!! How are you making it microtonal?

I got a GR-20 and I ran it through Sonar and 6 soft synths - I'm posting it as a response - see if you like it.

[MaxRidgway]

@clones98 Hi - Thanks! On the GR-700 you can step on an edit button and fine-tune the pitch. That's mostly what I'm doing along with bending the strings.

was great with headphones on!! It massaged my brainwaves! That's an old school gtr synth . It's a Roland right?

[MaxRidgway]

@kevbot71 Thanks! I took special care with the stereo image for this. Yes, it's a Roland GR-700 system.

this somehow f*cks up my brainwaves.

im the 5th person who disliked, what a load of balls.

[TheModCon]

As much as I love long scale music, ambience, dissonance and all that. Wanted to hear micro tones used in a more musical setting, rather than two or three notes drones making dissonant chords. Because to be honest, we can all do this, bring something new to the table.
