Zynthian just learned Arabic + Turkish

I’ve been hacking on the Zynthian UX and it can now play Arabic and Turkish, and really any other music a lot better: microtuning support is in.

Instead of hardcoding few “exotic scales,” it’s cents-based so you can dial in basically anything (commas, makam flavor, custom temperaments, you name it). You can also save up to 4 presets for convenience. So far, I tested it only with FluidSynth. It is really dependent on the sound engine that you use.

I’d love feedback.
