    I was just informed that our voice department has ordered a unit that contains over 8,000 temperaments, the TBX2 by "Hpi". This is a tuning system interface for use with various synthesizers. Anyone out there have any experience with this?

    So are they going to require all the voice students to be able to sing in any of them on demand?

    Seems like just a wee bit of overkill, but at any rate I will advise our voice department to wait until the TBX3 ;-)

    Seriously, though, I wonder how they plan to use this. Seems like more of a match for composition than voice. Or do you have a really active microtonalist in the voice dept?
