I'm in the process of getting midi setup on my Have now got this going, and it seems an excellent solution for PC-owning midi ignoramuses. It can read tunings in the SCALA format, of which there is a huge library available, so I've had the experience of listening to my keyboard play in all sorts of strange temperaments. The file format for the tunings looks very simple, so it'll be easy to set up any other temperament one likes, as long as one can calculate the frequencies. Definitely recommended.
