I dont think that arpegiation from a non ET scale will fall exactly on a note anyway - though I'd have to think about that. I guess it depends what key you're in... which can't be expressed in a note number anyway, so I still think its redundant. Now I think about it you wouldn't want to do arpegiation using note numbers, what you're interested in the the pitch coefficient to get the correct harmonic relation. - Steve
