    This is cool stuff! I stumbled into xenharmonics/microtonal stuff via tuning theory exploration, which ultimately led me to some of these weird niche midi controllers (isomorphic). I've always really enjoyed genre/style crossing music, so when I started exploring things like Gamelan and Turkish tunings and such, I just had to try to understand it.

    The other entry point for me was Wendy Carlos 'Beauty in the Beast' which seems to be hard to find these days. I also checked out Sevish for some interesting selections. I recall there was a really cool website on the release of Micropangea!

    I haven't really looked into this stuff in few years, but it seems there's a good bit of cool stuff being made now.

    Thanks to your comment I came across the revamped xenharmonic wiki page: https://en.xen.wiki/ I found this really fun browser instrument thing there: https://fritzo.org/keys/#style=piano

    There's even a xen rhythms wiki too for all kinds of odd time sigs and such.

    I'm, really going down the rabbit hole now lol

    The synths on this page really are wild: https://www.dynamictonality.com/synths.htm I briefly experimented with 'The Viking' a long time ago.

    three Dynamic Tonality synthesizers, each of which uses a different technique of sound synthesis. They all use the same set of Dynamic Tonality controls and support a wide range of microtonal tunings that can be smoothly morphed between. Furthermore, their timbres can be matched to the underlying tuning.
