I love Beauty in the Beast but whenever I have tried playing Wendy's scales to make my own stuff it just sounds terrible.
That is the main problem with all non-12 TET IMO. Making music that doesn't suck is hard enough in 12 TET. Starting from scratch with a scale by Carlos or Harry Partch takes a real musical genius and that is certainly not me. Worst though is there is no road map to follow in order to get better for us mere mortals.
BTW FM7/FM8 VST is the easiest way to play a few Carlos scales.
