I really like the functions on the Intellijel uScale, but it doesn't really do microtonal.

Thanks for the further info. I'm wading through some other MuffWiggler posts about it. It does sound very interesting and would probably do what I want. I have emailed Addac already so hopefully will know more. I have time to do lots of research as that purchase will not be for a bit. I have a Monster Base on the way (delivery was delayed - should have been on Tuesday and now not till next Tuesday - grrrrerrr!) and have a PMS12 on order and then my money will be in short supply for a bit alas :-(

if i were you i would just write andre at addac directly with your questions.
from my experience and what little i know the previous firmware had the following problems
1) if channel 2, 3 or 4 had separate cv running in, and that cv was ever at 0v, that channel reverted to the cv running into channel 1. this wasn't a "bug" but a consequence of how it was programmed.
2) the external gate in for channels 2, 3 and 4 did not always work.
3) the f#minor scale was wrong and a f # minor jazz descending
there may be other problems with it. some people have a hard time operating it at first because they don't understand that the present's are for interval patterns only and that the tuning you have it set to is a separate value to save and is independent of "presets".
i know the update is out and they are willing to do it for you and that some shops will be doing it. or you can order the stuff to do it yourself.
next to the ardcore it seems like something that offers the flexibility you are looking for. as for outs...it has four channels. they can't have separate scales for each channel but you can run of course separate cv into each and also externally gate them independent of each other and the possibility of creating chords with channel 2, 3 and 4 by changing the intervals for each.
good luck!

That link had only two posts in it
ADDAC quantizer has some serious issues and it is being updated with a new firmware. No units are being sold until the bugs are removed, see this topic:

the addac quantizer has microtuning and is super flexible.

A lot of people are using ES-3 and Silent Way for microtonal scales. Probably you could use ES-3/ES-6 combo as a quantizer for cv sources.

Interesting thought indeed!
I had not spend to much thought on it as you see :D
I was just thinking about being able to tune beatings of two oscillators with two (more correctly said perhaps) semi-microtonal quantizers..
It was just a quick thought though...

I thought an Ardcore had 8-bit D/A, that would not be enough precision for microtuning which requires cent-level (bare minimum!) precision

I think the Ardcore is indeed the easiest way to go. I was thinking of a microtonal quantizer myself this week. I don't know why... but it just crossed my mind.
My conclusion then was also an arduino based solution like the Ardcore.

That sounds doable - though I'm no programmer. I shall check it out.
Another use would be to pull the stored random quarter tones of the A149-1 to scales that contain quarter tones and semitones - like Arabic music for instance.
Any other ideas
One approach would be an Ardcore module set up as a quantiser (there is a quantiser sketch in the core set) which you could then tune as you wished

I'm thinking about making a price of music that is tuned to harmonics and would like to be able to quantize sequencers, other controllers to pitches that I determine beforehand. I hope that makes sense.
