4. Are the temperaments configurable somewhere?
No, ATM the four that are built-in are all you have. It's a quick solution but it should cover most periods. I plan to add direct support for the Scala database at some time. If changing the temparament is important to you, just let me know, and I'll change some priorities... (and if it's very urgent, you could edit scales.cc :-)
Well, I'm experimenting with different temperaments, adaptive tunings, psychoacoustic stuff, so this would be very useful for me. (I'm currently using SuperCollider for that purpose, but my home-grown synths don't sound all that good yet. ;-) But I'd vote for MIDI tuning standard support, because that would allow programmatic control. (I already have my own little tuning program which reads scala format files and dumps tunings in either MTS or XG format.)
But by all means please go ahead with whatever your plans are to make the instrument even more real (chiff and all that). ;-) If I grok the sources, I might look into the MTS support myself, if I have the time...
