RE: maqam
ttbomk 12 scales using the 17 tone pythagorean octave as delineated by safi al din, think considered "father" of arabic music and oud playing, or i might be remembering someone else.. think there's hundreds of maqamat (scales) used atm but these are the "classics" :P
the tonic might be a few cents off (all i can find is 'similar to western g') but as such, it's in tune with my algorithmic stuff.
real winner, but hey it's raining.
