Hey, folks! First post here!
I'm really into microtonality and I want to use finer scales such as 31-EDO, but it becomes really tricky with the current piano roll gui. Since the amount of octaves in the piano roll is limited to about 8 12-tone octaves, I end up running out of room when I try exploring larger scales.
I feel like there could be a potential option for changing the note labels, notes per octave, number of octaves, etc., but it wouldn't have an effect on the tonality - that would be the VST's job. Therefore, a bunch of code wouldn't have to be added in for the tonality to change along with the custom layout. Heck, I feel like this might work for people who don't really use microtonality in their work.
What do you guys think? Would it be worth it? I don't really know that much about code, so this might be a difficult thing to implement if the piano roll's current design is already pretty hardwired into the GUI.
