Audacity??? Say I want to experiment with a 19-TET (19 tone equal 
temperament) musical scale. Is there really some plugin or something in 
Audacity that lets me try this? I really doubt it, but I have only used 
Audacity for very simple recordings, so if you know if this is really 
possible, let me know.

As for Scala, I have tried it, and all the mathematical stuff in the 
program seems to work no problem in my Ubuntu Studio (so for instance, I 
can easily see the frequencies that such a 19-TET scale should have), 
but I haven't figured out yet how to plug that information into 
something that will actually produce the sounds (apparently it should 
work with playmidi and timididy, both of them installed, but I didn't 
manage to configure it properly... YET :-)

Cheers,
Ángel de Vicente
