In response to a suggestion of Dr. Ozan Yarman I tried a tuning he created for a different project. I realized the composition using Garritan Personal Orchestra Baroque organs, Garritan World sample set Oud and Santoor samples performed on an M-Audio 88es and recorded in Sonar X1.
Here is a revised version – I had an error in my scala file that made the octave exact when it was not to be.
