A Musescore plugin for tuning scores to 31EDO.
This plugin can be used to tune the whole score, or only a portion of it, to 31EDO.
It's compatible with the following notation systems:
- Circle of fifths notation, using double sharps and flats. In this system, a sharp or a flat indicates an alteration of 2 EDO steps, and a double sharp or a double flat an alteration of 4 EDO steps. For example, a chromatic scale between
C
andD
would be written as:
- Neutral circle of fifths notation, using half and sesqui sharps and flats. In this system, a half sharp or a half flat indicates an alteration of 1 EDO step, and a sesqui sharp or a sesqui flat an alteration of 3 EDO steps. For example, a chromatic scale between
C
andD
would be written as:
- Sagittal notation, using quarter tone and half tone arrows. In this system, a quarter tone arrow indicates an alteration of 1 EDO step, and a half tone arrow indicates an alteration of 2 EDO steps. For example, a chromatic scale between
C
andD
would be written as:
These notation systems are not mutually exclusive, the plugin can correctly tune a score which uses a mixture of them.
See here for a list of every supported accidental.
- If the score contains transposing instruments, ensure that the score is being displayed at concert pitch. If it's not, the notes of transposing instruments will not be tuned correctly.
- If you want to tune only a portion of the score, select it before running the plugin. If nothing is selected, the entire score will be tuned.

If the score contains transposing instruments, you can safely turn off concert pitch after running the plugin, as the tuning of the notes will not be affected.
